About this blog

Howdy!

This is going to be my first serious attempt at a professional-style blog.

Yes, "professional-style." Those who know me know that I disdain pure superficiality.

Anyhow, the goal of this blog is to post economic thoughts, relevant paper ideas, and a general update for anyone who concerns his or her self with Thomas Roderick's economic studies progression/success.

As of this post (24 February 2010 9:30 AM) I am a graduate students in the College of Liberal Arts Economics Department at the University of Texas at Austin. I am in my first year, with comprehensive exams (comps) looming in the near horizon.

I am an alumnus of Brigham Young University ('07) with a B.Sc. in Mathematics and an additional major (BA equivalent) in economics. I had a healthy amount of chemistry, history, political science, and teaching classes thrown in there somewhere.

I worked as an engineer in Dallas with a controls company and as a product tester at woot for the time between graduate school and graduation. Woot was definitely more fun and less stressful!

I can't think of anything else to post here, so let this suffice for now.
