I’m an editor for O’Reilly Media; I cover a number of areas, including Arduino, wireless sensor networks, mobile devices, as well as some Microsoft and Apple topics.

I like to hack on gadgets such as Arduino and the BeagleBoard in my spare time, and I’m also a volunteer system administrator and all-around geek for AS220, a non-profit arts center that gives Rhode Island artists uncensored and unjuried forums for their work.
