Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

I think that may be true? I only know Leary from that Asshole song, and alive alive oh from Molly Malone.
