About Steve

I am a fourth-year medical student and first-year business student at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine. I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a B.A. in molecular cell biology (cell & developmental biology), and a B.A. in computer science with honors.

In the short term, I'm studying for the USMLE step 2 CK & CS medical licensing exams. I begin M.B.A. work at UC Irvine's Merage School of Business in September 2010.

I'm interested in...

  • health information technology and applications towards improving doctor-doctor and patient-doctor communications
  • virtual reality, game, and entertainment applications towards health
  • visual communication and design
  • psychiatry (maybe emergency medicine!).

I enjoy...

  • reading business books and art magazines
  • sipping Javakula drinks at Borders
  • exercising and bicycling
  • people watching on OCTA bus route 57 and New York City Transit's Flushing/Main-Times Square/42nd St 7 Ex
  • playing Nintendo DS games

In a former life...

  • editor-in-chief of a high school newspaper
  • developed video games
  • repaired magazines and shelved books in a public library
  • lead cellist in a classical orchestra
  • martial artist
  • software engineer
