I'm the head of the math department at an independent school here in Brooklyn, NY, where I teach mainly calculus courses. I started programming computers as a hobby when I was a kid, and it's still a passionate interest. I've learned a bunch of languages and paradigms, but I'm especially interested in iOS development, database programming, and programming in Python. Recently, I've been experimenting with incorporating CS concepts into my school's math curriculum.

I come from a musical family---my father was the Principle Bassoon in the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra for almost forty years (yes, I've heard the joke about our last name, and yes, it's funny), and my uncle was a Julliard-trained cellist in the Atlanta Symphony for at least as long. I started playing the piano when I was five, and I picked up the guitar and bass at fifteen. About three years ago I started learning to play clawhammer banjo, and I can't seem to put it down. :) My main musical interests center around jazz and American folk music.
