About me:

One is generally not defined by what it is they do for a living, but then again, Being a geek isn't just a full time job for me, it's a lifesyle :P

The short version of what I do every day is “I work in a germ factory. I make broke stuff unbroke.”

If that doesn't do it for your curiosity, let me elaborate: I work as a Site based support specialist for the I.S. division of a not-for-profit health system operating acute care hospitals, long-term care facilities, housing sites for the elderly, home health agencies, hospice programs, wellness centers and other healthcare sites. Basically, I'm on the "omgz it's broke, go fix it" team. There are 4 of us that work “in the trenches” and our supported facilities generated almost 30,000 call tickets in 2008. I'm a busy guy :P

When I'm not maintaining and building equipment which could directly or indirectly save your life, I'm usually found at home, doing nerdy things, as people of my like are known to do. I read books, watch cartoons, philosophize, compute (Mac & PC, I'm bilingual :P), lounge, listen to music, work on whatever my latest project is, and if it's nice, I go outside and work on my house or yard.

My personal philosophy has always been that of the “jack of all trades”. as such I'm a wealth of useless knowledge. Lately, my obsessions are of the sharp and pointy in nature, turning simple tools into tiny bits of art and science. Trying my best to hold onto a dying American tradition. I'll talk about it for hours though, and this isn't exactly the place for that :P
