Well, my time at ASU is done. I still try to maintain this website as best I can, but I have moved on. I am now the Database Specialist at HiRISE. These personal pages will no longer be maintained, and will eventually be moved to here.

A few things about me:

I am the web and systems administrator for the Electronic Collaborative for Excellence in the Preparation of Teachers (ecept) and I also continue to maintain the Arizona Collaborative for Excellence in the Preparation of Teachers (ACEPT) website, both at Arizona State University,Department of Physics and Astronomy

Links and Stuff

• The ACEPT website can be found here
• On the side, I am part of the Comet Research Group at ASU, and when I have the time, I do some "real science"
• Some povray ray-tracer "junk." I played around with it just long enough to create a few nice 3D icons for ACEPT. Maybe one of these days I'll find the time (and the motivation) to do something more with it. POV-ray is pretty cool.
• The obligatory link to slashdot, the site for rumors, lies, and the occaisional out-right fabrication about linux, Free Software, OpenSource and other tech industry babble. Be sure you're wearing your asbestos long-johns before entering the fray.
• I have been known to dable in photography from time to time. Some of my feeble attempts at astrophotography can be found here. *New*: I've just finished scanning a few highlights from my recent scuba diving trip to Catalina. More to come soon.
• I recently got married. If you've got a lot of time on your hands, feel free to have a look at our wedding and honeymoon pictures (don't say I didn't warn you, there are a lot of pictures).
