Rick Manelius

I love to learn, to apply, to share, and to repeat that process over and over again across every facet of life. It's what inspired me to volunteer at a computer shop in high school, where I eventually learned how assemble PCs from start to end in under a few hours. It's why I went to MIT to study computer science, how to create processors through every layer of abstraction and to discuss how the vibrational properties of a nanotube cause it to attract or repel in multi-body systems. It's why I have an amazon.com book wish-list a mile long. It's why I love to explore the human mind through meditation. It's why I love working with smart individuals to solve complex problems by pooling our collective knowledge and expertise together to create solutions that we may never have created as individuals.

I have a belief that with all the information out there: the lessons, the breakthroughs, and the opportunities... it's simply impossible to be bored in life.

Getting down to business. I love opportunities that involve strategy, collaboration, continuous improvement, and (when possible) making the world a better place.
