I'm a software developer in my (very) late forties. I have a good-sized family: one wife and three boys, one autistic. We live just outside of Boston.

The best way to reach me is by email. I'm on Twitter, and I'm also nedbat in the #python IRC channel on freenode.

My interests, generally reflected in my blog, include: software engineering, parenting, math (especially visual aspects, such as geometry), politics, geeky recreations, language, and so on.

I freelance, and can help you with your work. Take a look at my resume if you want to know what I've done and what I can do.

I've worked in a bunch of places, usually each smaller than the last for some reason:

• University of Pennsylvania,
• Digital, which became part of Compaq, now Hewlett-Packard,
• Lotus, which became part of IBM,
• Iris, the subsidiary of Lotus that developed Notes,
• Blue Ripple, a startup which is no more,
• Kubi Software, a startup which was folded into Pragmatech,
• Tabblo, which was acquired by Hewlett-Packard.
