Doing research is a wonderful alchemy of intuition, patience and sometimes luck. It's about inspiration and practice, practice, practice. It has been my life and passion for nearly a decade. Still each time I learn something new. And every night when I play with data and find out an interesting story, I'm reminded of just how lucky I am. I hope you enjoy reading my papers as much as I've enjoyed writing them.
