"Professor wants a Summer Gig"

    Location: remote or on the beach in SoCal or FL.
    Remote: yes
    Willing to relocate: N/A
    Technologies: javascript, php, database, SPSS. Know some: R, ReactJS, python, machine learning (did Andrew Ng's MOOC), bitcoin (did the Princeton MOOC)
    Résumé/CV: see below
    Email: profsummergig@gmail.com

I'm a computer professor in the business school of a university in the Rocky Mountain area.

I get summers off. I want to visit SoCal or FL for 3 months during summer 2017 to learn surfing (I'm a young-at-heart, very physically active male 44 year old, never married, no kids).

During that stay, I'd like to work for a start-up or some such. Don't need pay, but sweat equity and a place to crash would be yuuuuuge.

My ideal schedule will be to surf 4 hours a day, and spend 8 hours a day working at the start-up. I consider myself well-versed in human communication, cognitive biases, UI/UX design, pricing, coaching.

I'm well read. My regular reads (and YouTube and Twitter addictions) include:

    - Hacker News
    - Nassim Taleb
    - Daniel Kahneman
    - Marc Andreessen
    - Paul Graham (Y Combinator)
    - Scott Adams (creator of Dilbert)
    - Derek Sivers

I'm huge into hacking "learning." I've studied Spanish (Pimsleur Level IV and Michel Thomas Foundation) and French (Pimsleur Level I and Michel Thomas Foundation), and am fluent in English and Hindi. I have a PhD, and hope to do a J.D. one day. Good cook, regular meditator. Originally from India, I have my green card, and expect to have citizenship in mid-June.
