When I have to put myself into a professional bucket, I call myself a “Creative Engineer” My background spans alternative energy, community radio, permaculture, wired and mobile Internet telephony, open-source advocacy, social gaming, and interactive experience design. I find myself meandering between cynicism and optimism for both design and engineering. But I strongly believe that technology is a facilitator for art and user experience, and that technology should be easy, fun, and approachable for everyone.
Ask me about

Best piece of advice I've ever heard
