As Manager of Academic Systems, I'm responsible for managing the talented staff that administers Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, and Opal, the timesharing systems used for electronic mail, Usenet news, Internet access (including the Web server that is providing this to you now) and research computation. I'm also a member of the Tufts University Web Editorial Board

Prior to joining TCCS in the summer of 1994, I spent many good years at The Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center at Tufts University. As one of the founding staff there, I created the Division of Scientific Computing.

I am an OpenVMS guy living in a Unix world. I despair for the state of computing and information technology when a 25 year old operating system is seen as state-of-the-art. Of course, we'll all soon be experiencing zero-administration bliss.

I'm a long time member of Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility, and take an active interest in issues relating to technology and politics. I'm also a member of Decus, Usenix , and SAGE.
