Hi, I suppose I should give a short version intro up here.
I have many interests but my main areas of professional and academic interest are in nursing (practice and theory), information technology, and nursing informatics.
Non-academic main interests I have are in cartooning (specifically web comics, as I am a webcomic artist) and graphic art. I also have interests (though less so expertise) in music, theatre, movies, literature, gaming, and so much more.

And now for the "resume":
