From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I believe wikis are changing the way society thinks about information in a profound way.

I have a Bachelors of Physics from the United States Naval Academy, and am pursuing a Masters of Organizational Change from Hawaii Pacific University.

I work for a state energy agency, overseeing energy planning and policy.

I was previously a Principal with an international technology and strategy consulting firm, and have a broad base of IT experience, including Linux, Unix, various versions of Windows, as well as CIO level strategy and analysis for large public sector enterprises.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." -- Theodore Roosevelt April 23, 1910
