Introduction

Hello,

My name is John Austin Pierce and I was born in Boston, Massachusetts. I am an English major working on my teacher's certificate for Secondary Education. I am also interested in Physics, Philosophy, and Engineering.
My family is a working-class family; my dad runs his own mechanic shop and my mom is an assitant librarian at my former high school. I grew up in Bandera, Texas about 50 miles northwest of San Antonio.
I am a writer, musician, and I love rock climbing. I also work for the Outdoor Adventure Department at the Campus Recreation Center and build routes for the rock climbing wall.
