More Recently, I have had a growing interest in Social Media and Online Communities, and learning to understand how it plays a role in business and personal / professional relationships.

Community and Volunteer Work

I volunteer my time and skill as the New Media and Internet Specialist for the non-profit Alumni and Friends of Lynn Classical High School. In addition to enabling lost connections among the alumni, we have had some good success in building our online community and rallying support for the Organization’s Scholarship Program.

Personal

I am also an artist and like to paint and sculpt when I’m not geeking out. I attended Montserrat College of Art and studied Illustration and Graphic Design. Somewhere along the way, it led me into technology where I settled into a happy profession with some success.
