Ancient NYC based software dev / devops guy. Reluctant sysadmin and infosec person.

Grew up on Long Island and spent many years racing sailboats on the Sound after I learned how to sail when I lived in Cleveland.

Recovering audiophile geek. I no longer own anything that requires matched EL34s. Live music junkie making up for lost time since bands started touring again. Still trying to figure out how and when alt-country became Americana.

Oh yeah: he/him.

Harry Connick, Jr., Terence Blanchard, Saint Aug, Master P, Southern's Human Jukebox, The Soul Rebels, Dancing Dolls, all female brass band The Pinettes, Big Freedia, Leroy Jones, Freddie Lonzo, Indians, and endless brass.

Very demure. Very mindful.
