#introduction: I am an incorrigible nerd that loves music, tech, and various activities that make me sweat. I mess around with my #guitars, #modularsynth, #hamradio, #brewing #beer and various other things that pique my interests. I do #Marathons, #Triathlons, #trailrunning, #openwaterswimming, and #cycling. Originally from Victoria BC, I live with my partner of 25 years (and three cats) in a house in East Vancouver. Work at #UBC. Currere sicut canis, relaxat sicut felem.
