- About Me
Early in my life, it seemed I was to become a professional electronic musician, graduating from Berklee College of Music in 1995. In an effort to maintain complete freedom to explore musical realms, and unable to meet people sharing my dream, I turned to technology to help me in an entrepreneurial pursuit.
While that pursuit continues, I've informally learned a lot about art, business, and technology. In short, I'm a hacker.
In addition to composing, producing, and engineering professional sounding electronic music in my apartment bedroom, I have a fair amount of skill using Adobe Photoshop, have developed some decent writing skills, and have barely scratched the surface on the video front.
My business knowledge includes some accounting, intellectual property (copyright and trademark), and public relations.
Within the technology facet, I assembled my own PCs, have hacked together a handful of Web applications (basically being an intermediate in PHP, xHTML, CSS, JavaScript, and SQL), placing as much focus as I can on security. I was the information technology department at a small law firm from 1997-2003, so I have some knowledge in networking too. I'm now deeply immersed in Drupal.
Add a love for exploring the workings of reality itself, theoretical physics, yoga, and an undying embrace of the naturally-given, unalienable right to liberty and the need to properly secure it, and you have a good fundamental knowledge about me.
I hope to also have some time to create a basic personal website (using Drupal, of course), so I can fill in the "Website" field of this profile.

- The QOR, LLC
- Organization Profile
With solid connections to a group of established writers, the four founding members of The QOR, LLC (pronounced core) spent three years refining an innovative business model that may revolutionize entertainment, allowing qualified content creators to make a good living from their work without requiring exclusivity.
The QOR, LLC is seeking funding from angel investors (family, friends, business colleagues, etc.) to properly publish version 1.0 of The QOR Club, a top-notch Web application for entertainment and social networking on the Internet (with some interesting twists), and to promptly get our company up and running.
I have gained a wide array (with varying depths) of relevant knowledge over the past decade spanning the full process of building and deploying a Web application, so I have embarked on building The QOR Club flying solo, hoping to create a synergy between The QOR, LLC and the Drupal community (Drupal being a perfect fit for this project) that will define my role within that community and help develop connections necessary in realizing The QOR Club.
I hope to also have some time to create a basic company website (using Drupal, of course), so I can fill in the "Organization Website" field of this profile.
