It's hard to write briefly about yourself.  Hard because ideally what you want to do is make an impression upon your hypothetical reader, such that after reading what you write, the reader will have the sensation that he, or she, actually knows you.  But hard as it is, here is a small introduction to myself:

I was born in Colombia, a country full of contrasts, a country with high mountains and deep valleys, vast naked plains and thick jungles, deep seas and large rivers, a country of love, a country of war.  My hometown is Bogotá, a big city of perpetual spring (except when it rains), of progress and culture, a city of sunsets; but I also have called
another city my home: Cali, a city of perpetual summer, of sugar cane and salsa, a city of sunrises.

My main interests are people and all that is part of their identity (language, traditions, history, religion, cuisine, music, etc.), books (mainly fiction but also history), movies (in general), games (board and video games), music (playing, listening and dancing) and knowledge (physics is my area of expertise but all branches of human knowledge fascinate me).  My favorite activities are learning and teaching.

Currently I'm living in Bozeman, Montana in the United States, where I'm a PhD candidate on Solar Physics in the Montana State University.  I'm currently working with Dr. Piet Martens and Dr. Dibyendu Nandi.

As I mentioned before one of my main interests is music and Colombian music holds a special place among the types of music I love.  In the first semester of 2007 my flute professor, Karen Leech, asked me if I could give a talk about Colombian music in my flute seminar and I did.  After I gave it I felt that was a very nice talk, nicely balanced and interesting.  Karen, my professor, liked it very much too, so much in fact that she asked me if I could give it again next semester for all the flute students and the public in general.  So I gave it again, and since in the process of preparing for it I wrote the full script, I decided to put it on my webpage.
