BY DAY: Director of SW Engineering...chief bottle washer...at a microscopic company. Code a lot of stuff myself, coach/encourage/cheerlead interns to help them land jobs at other companies that can pay real salaries

BY NIGHT: Love languages (speak German and Japanese fluently, and a small smattering of a few others) have always been fascinated by information models. Do a lot with markup languages simply because I love them. Pursue geeky questions like the subtle variations in the (common) Chinese characters between Taiwan, Hong Kong, PRC, Japan, and Korea.
