Occupation(s)Computer Scientist, Software Developer

I work for a nonprofit, Grand Rapids Community Media Center. That's a parent organization of WYCE, GRTV, Wealthy Theatre, The Rapidian, an education department, and my department, IT. I am a solo developer of a fairly extensive internal systems used for administration of members and the various services the organization offers, as well as the content management system we use for the public site.

I am an active contributor on Stack Overflow.

I am a skeptic, an atheist (non-evangelical, or a hardliner like Bill Maher), and a retired internet troll. I play the game Astro Empires, but wikipedia is too cool to have a page about it, even though Nickleback gets a page. Hmph. No accounting for taste.
