I grew up in Connecticut, went to school in Connecticut, my first job at IBM was right over the CT border in NY - so by the time I was 25 I was *really* ready to get to the west coast! I co-founded and am the CEO at Meebo, where we're connecting people with their friends or people with like interests on an open platform all across the web. For fun I love to fly small airplanes, ride motorcycles and I've recently gotten into road biking - there's something neat about commuting from San Mateo to Mountain View under your own power.
