Not from around here! (SPQR, indeed!)

CTO, IT + Tech Consulting veteran (31+ years),

Hands-on technologist + systems designer,

Avid software developer (code using a , 'natch ;-),

Chef-in-training & WDW Ninja (not afraid to admit it!)

If it involves technology, chances are I've taken a byte (*groan*) out of it! If, or when, you require heavy (IT) lifting, give a shout!

I live on the North Shore of Boston with my wife (of 31 years!), 3 kids ... and, oh yeah, Chloe and Bruno (our pups)!
