I’m about as creative as Thor.

I’m a Flames fan. When I joined the Board, I was living in Iowa City working on a PhD in English Lit at the University of Iowa. The name didn’t seem fun or exciting or anything, but it was easy to think of.

Now, I no longer live in Iowa; I’ve been back in Calgary for almost 10 years. The username is maybe the last legacy of that chapter in my life, though I do sometimes wish I’d picked something more original.

Funnily enough, apart from being lazy username choosers, Thor and I have another thing in common.......

Icelandic. We’re both Icelandic. What were YOU thinking?
