A Stanford M.E. graduate which drifted into software development as the decades rolled by. I taught at Stanford for 5 years full time and 10 years part time. I founded Sunspool Corporation in the 1980's and started Endicia Internet Postage in the mid-90's. I'm in the process of learning Linux and Ruby/Rails after a long time in the MS Windows arena. I play guitar (poorly) but still haven't given up hope of development some modest skills.
