Rennaissance Man
Name:Francisco Gutierrez
Location:Denver, Colorado, United States
Birthdate:1973-09-22
LJ Talk:
Bio:I have the personality of a rennaissance man, a cross between a scientist, an entrepreneur, and an explorer (ENTP according to the Myers-Briggs personality classification). I am optimistic(sometimes too optimistic for my own good), enthusiastic, future oriented, and I love technology.

I have dabbled at one point or another in most of the basic sciences as well as philosophy, but since I could not choose to dedicate myself to just a single area, I chose a very multidisciplinary field for my professional work, Artificial Intelligence. I currently work developing statistical pattern recognition software and I am working on a masters on Mathematics, with a concentration on Computational Biology.

As far as hobbies, I practice capoeira which is a very cool Brazilian martial art. I love reading, especially science, philosophy, and science fiction.
