About Me

I moved to New Mexico from California in January 2006 to start my PhD degree, drawn by the research at UNM. I recently married after graduation and currently reside in the Four Corners area of New Mexico. I am in the job search process and am willing to relocate to most places in the United States.

My hobbies include cycling, genealogy, camping, and hiking.  I enjoyed hiking the non-technical "14'ers" in California and have included some panoramic photos from their summits: 

I became interested in genealogy during my first job after college, working with Broderbund on the Family Tree Maker Program.  You can view my family tree which contains about 13,000 relatives.  If you are in this tree, you are related to me.
