My name is Range. It has been my nickname since I was 5. Across three continents and four countries, it has followed me like an indelible mark.
I write stuff, create stuff and photograph stuff. I have a Frenchie named Gizmo, (Spike RIP) and two cats, Yoda and Tigger. I’m also a freelance blogger. I wrote for Apartment Therapy/Unplggd, Technabob (see archived posts here), SciTechDaily and other online publications. You can check out my posts over there or on this blog. I’ve been a part-time journalist since ’98 in print, web, and radio media.
I’ve been in Taipei for years. I studied pure mathematics as a graduate student at NTNU, specializing in Analysis (topology, measure theory, complex analysis, Riemann Surfaces, Manifolds) and Algebraic Structures(Homological Algebras, Commutative Algebras). My thesis focused on PDEs, which examine the elasticity of rods, modeled in MATLAB, in order to examine the singularities thus generated, and infuse the study of different measures in this project.
I’ve been a digital strategist for some startups, computer programmer for years in Python and C#, financial analyst, data scientist, writer, and artist.
I’m fluent in English, French and German. I’m currently perfecting my Mandarin.
