About Me

My name is Jeff Reid. I am a freshman at Duke University majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I grew up in Chattanooga, TN and am an only child. My interests include competitive cycling, ping pong, and pretty much anything active and/or outdoors. I love to laugh and to do things that are considered "immature" for people my age. I often spend my free time perusing The Onion, building stuff (a.k.a. potato guns, Legos, furniture, etc...), going exploring in the woods, and goofing off with friends.
