Hello World! Just started editing in the beginning of 2012! I am looking to learn and support as much as possible. Tips and pointers are much appreciated.
I like to think I know a thing or two about international affairs. More specifically, I'm really interested in comparative politics, international economics, and history of the global economy. Most my contributions to wikipedia are on these topics. I'm also an avid runner, hiker, cyclist, and rock climber. I believe America's healthcare woes would all be solved if we all just ran 5 miles, 3 times a week and did simple Calisthenics.
