Born and raised in New York City, moved to NJ for my senior year of High School. I went onto Arizona State for a few years, had fun, then graduated from University of Delaware.

I worked at a startup firm right out of college as a jack of all trades, DBA, Unix Admin, Programmer, QA, etc, then went on to work for several financial institutions. I thrived on stress. Speaking of, got married, had two girls, now teens, and one son, now 5. I've been married for 17 years.

In my spare time over the years, collected comic books, baseball cards, like SciFi, and yes, romantic comedies. I like to think of myself as a person who can be empathetic, understand aspects and cultures beyond my own. I may not agree with the point of view, but I try to go into a situation with one mantra, ALL PERSPECTIVES ARE VALID. Oh, and I like all types of music from classical, pop, rap, rock, all but very, very heavy metal, some acoustic versions.

Am a huge lover of archaeology, history, museums, and art both contemporary, and prior.
