Name: C. David LaRoche Hometown: Halifax, N.S. Current location: Vancouver, B.C. Favourite colour: Blue-ish Political views: Absurdist Redeeming qualities: Skinny, cuts own hair, Made in Texas™ About me: I'm a 24-year old writer/editor/researcher who is currently employed by a Vancouver-based, Asia-related think tank. Previous endeavours include being an editorial intern at The Walrus magazine in Toronto, editor-in-chief of the Dalhousie Gazette in Halifax, and an intern and freelance contributor to The Gazette in Montreal. I also edit university and college handbooks, help research a US-based statistics column syndicated in more than 75 newspapers, dabble in web design, and have been (mostly erroneously) quoted in the press as an 'expert' on North Korea. I hold a Master of Arts in Political Science from Dalhousie University and Bachelor of Journalism with Honours from the University of King's College. I was born and raised in Halifax, N.S., by Quebecois parents. And I should have gone into architecture.
