Bio:
Engineer, Songwriter, Musician, Photographer, Music Fan
I’m basically an aging nerd. I’m now retired, but I spent most of my career doing computer networking, mostly at Bolt Beranek & Newman, and Cisco, with a few sidelines into other areas. I’m now doing whatever interests me:
- music & supporting the local (Boston/New England)music scene in various ways, including running the “Ellen Schmidt’s Open Mike” in Boxborough MA, and running sound at the PCA Open Mike in Westford MA.
- For the past few years, I’ve been running the live-stream crew for the Main Stage at the annual Falcon Ridge Folk Festival (YouTube)
- hacking code and bits of hardware for my own purposes (Unix/Linux/MacOS/RPi/Arduino/Micropython/ESP32/…)
- being a “gentleman farmer” (gardening, pet poultry and goats)
