Anthropology, Economics, and the Renaissance Man
The Renaissance Man: A man who is knowledgeable in an unusually wide variety of the arts and sciences (World Book Dictionary). Well, no, I am not yet a Renaissance man. I do try to learn something new everyday, and I am always open to new experiences. In order to satisfy my curiosity while in college, I pursued a double major in anthropology and economics. I would go from a class on Game Theory or Industrial Organization to the next class on Foucault or Ethnographic Methodology. I can talk as knowledgeably about the Kula of the Trobriander Islanders as I can about 403(b) and TAMRA guidelines.
In answering this question, I came up with an geocentrically long list detailing my "diversity" and possible contributions to the your program. However, here are just seven pieces of evidence: (1) I enjoyed All Quiet on the Western Front so much that I learned German to read the original version; (2) I play Chopin for stress relief with an emphasis on his nocturnes and preludes; (3) I tried Uni (sea urchin gonad sushi) and liked it; (4) For a class extra-credit project I co-produced a 16 minute all-in-Japanese video about why young Japanese women come to America; (5) I do computer consulting on the side and am a $50/hour expert in word processing, spreadsheets, and database programming; (6) I am known as [nickname] in the world of bulletin boards and the Internet.
I represent your typical well-rounded cultural anthropologist who has experience in financial sales and management. I can contribute computer, ethnographic, and financial expertise.
