I live in in a small town that will be wiped from the map if Mt. Rainier erupts.  I design information systems for the Washington State Department of Health.  I’m married and have two kids and a dog.  I play guitar and sing with a group of old friends who call themselves Roger and the Hubcaps.  I was once in a band called Raintown.  I write songs, poetry, and code.  In another life I trained for the ministry, but it turned out I just don’t love people enough for that line of work.
