My Background
A.B. Mathematics, Hamilton College
M.S., Ph.D. (ABD) Systems and Information Science, Syracuse University
After graduate school, I worked for a number of firms in Rome NY, building automated cartography systems for both the U.S. Air Force and Navy. I began working with Unix on PDP-11's in 1978. I escaped from the frozen North for the gentler climes of New York's Hudson Valley, working for IBM to develop a coprocessor card and port of BSD4.3 Unix for their PC/AT and later, the PS/2. Moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts to work as IBM Visiting Engineer at MIT's Project Athena. At Athena's conclusion, I returned to work at the IBM Cambridge Scientific Center, and from there, to a series of software startups. Most recently, I was Engineering Manager (multi-platform software development) at a startup developing PKI security applications.
Interests
When I am not here, and weather permits, I sail competitively, fly fish and do some upland bird hunting.
