Who I am:
I am a BYU undergrad studying Political Science, Arabic, English, and Middle Eastern studies. I claim Massachusetts as a home, but I was born in Texas, raised in Illinois, and served a two year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Silicon Valley. One of my goals is to become a published Science Fiction writer. Another of my goals is to become fluent in modern Arabic. In the meantime, I blog when I should be doing other things.

Blogs I write:

Onelowerlight's Daily Photo Safari—my photoblog. New images every day.

Arab wa Gharab: Ayn Al-Ekhtelaf?—Arabic blog and language learning journal.

Journey to Jordan—journal and travel blog from the 2008 BYU Jordan study abroad.

A Thousand And One Parsecs—a journal of my life as an aspiring writer.

New! One Lower Light Shining—thoughts, insights, and experiences from living and studying the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.
