------------------

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 FL or CA for 3 months during summer 2017 to learn surfing.

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.

Programming languages I dabble in: javascript, php, python.

I'm an expert at SPSS and can work with R. Have knowledge of machine learning, bitcoin (I did the Stanford MOOC for both).

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 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 by summer.
