* '''Personal''' Originally from Buffalo, New York, I got my BSEE (with minors in computer science and general psychology) from RPI in 1984 and an MS in Computer Science in 2000. I'm the proud -- but disenfranchised -- father of two beautiful daughters.[http://www.fathersrightsnys.org/] I love seeing and doing live theatre, science fiction, and Tcl. * '''Professional''' I'm a GUI designer and software architect. All my GUI work and a fair bit more is done in Tcl which led to me writing the ''[BOOK Tcl/Tk Programmer's Reference]'' [http://www.purl.org/net/TclTkProgRef]. Presently employed as a Software Engineer for SIXNET [http://www.sixnetio.com] developing embedded software for industrial computers including SNMP [http://www.net-snmp.org/], IGMP, and other networking support. Formerly at Pinebush Technologies [http://www.pinebush.com], makers of high-performance image processing software for [EDA], [GIS], and other applications. I'm developing a multi-user, networked, databased application to track students and tutors for Literacy Volunteers [http://www.lvamohawkhudson.org/] using Tcl/Tk and MySQL.
