Web Designer for a company. Mostly buildouts and graphical updates.
General Counsel and executive for a major ISP and then one of the largest software resellers in the world. Also founded the first major online sports site and the first company to offer fantasy sports online. Some of you have probably sworn repeatedly at the Terms of Service and License agreements I drafted in the past. :)
Presently, I work with my wife in a small law firm that represents charter schools (publicly funded/privately run) throughout the state of Florida and do a fair amount of consulting for technology companies.
Mostly though, I'm a dad to a great three-year old boy. When he lets me know it's okay for Dad to go back to work I'll hopefully return to the fun world of bits, bytes, budgets and bargaining. If not that...shortstop for the Baltimore Orioles would be my second choice.

Out of work Avid editor... doing tech support for now.
I used to work at the local origination channel at Adelphia Cable in Toms River, NJ. Comcra... er, Comcast took over the system and in less than a year, I was out of work (not even a month before Christmas, no less.) Thus, you see the root of my deep and abiding loathing of that spawn of the Roberts family.
