Brain cubed

People are probably familiar with the method of avocado cutting therein the vegetable is cut in half across the axis of symmetry, the pit is removed, lines are scored through the flesh but not the skin in a grid pattern, and then one half of the vegetable is inverted, so as to cause rectangular sections to fall down out of it.

This is how I would approximate the general phenomena ongoing in my brain when waking up between 6:00am and 6:30am. This may need to be the end (perhaps temporarily) of my long-running and often cherished vampiric lifestyle.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. Between 2005 and 2007 I completed an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. I worked for five years for the Canadian federal government, including completing the Accelerated Economist Training Program, and then completed a PhD in Political Science at the University of Toronto in 2023.
