Paris, March 2005

Background
I'm a 24-year-old former student of Computer & Systems Engineering at RPI. I recently got engaged to my girlfriend, Kim (in the picture above) after nearly five years. My home is permanently in Upstate, NY.

History
I was born in Wilmington, DE and lived in suburban PA until I was 2. I then moved to Toledo, OH, and did most of my growing up before moving to upstate NY at age 14. I made it through high school and have just graduated RPI.

Interests
During grade school I was pretty active in sports, namely baseball and track, but I now stick to just jogging. Kim and I are season ticket holders for my school's hockey team, and I try to attend many of the events on campus. When on my computer I'm a regular around Slashdot, the Firefox community, as well as various newsgroups like AMDM and RMP. I run this website as well as amd-m.com.

Music
I spent a few years heavily trading live shows on CD, mainly Dave Matthews Band and Phish, but have since moved toward online trading. Currently I am listening to a lot of those bands plus Radiohead, 311, Tool, Pink Floyd, Chemical Brothers, and Led Zeppelin. I try to hit some of the various jamband-esque shows that come around, and usually go to several concerts each year.
