Technologist. Investor. Writer. Admirer of polymaths and consilience.I design microchips for AMD, including the chips in XBox, PlayStation, HP laptops, and other devices. My work involves RTL, verif, and BIOS functions.I have a long history with software development: coding, teaching, and leading. I am also comfortable with multiple human languages. I enjoy working with people toward a common goal.I am working on a book for publication. The working title is "A Field Guide To Love And Other Catastrophes."From time to time I teach meditation and compose music. When I am in Austin, Texas I get together with my bandmates. A few years ago we released an album of original Christmas songs. You can find it on Spotify and Apple Music. I hope to get back to completing the writing and recording of another album soon.
