• Who am I?

    I am Qrystal; or at least, that's my dot-name! Har har. (My name is really Crystal, but that's not as internet-searchable; hence, switching the C for the little-used letter Q.)

    I am here because I enjoy writing. I do this mostly for myself, but I also have a passion for helping others learn things from the things I write. Now that I am done my Ph.D. in Physics, I am stepping away from academic research so that I can indulge in some creative ways to share my knowledge and inspire the appreciation of scientific thinking in others. I am also working as a tutor, which is one of the jobs I've most enjoyed doing in my life so far.

    • Am I a Nerd, Geek, or Dork?

    According to the The Nerd, Geek, or Dork Test test, I am Pure Nerd: 78% Nerd, 17% Geek, 30% Dork … and as confirmation, I’m nerdy enough to be bothered that the percentages don’t add up to 100%! Are the three supposed to be taken as independent scales, despite the fact that the test is supposed to determine which of the three I am?  GAH!

    Really though, I feel the test results actually say a lot about me.  Even the slight bit of dorkiness is spot-on.
