I run a company in New York City that sells distributed computing
software, and spend as much time as possible in the Florida Keys
chilling out and doing as much scuba diving as possible. I've
logged over a hundred dives. Also,
I attend Columbia University in New York City part-time, and am
currently working on getting my private pilot's license. Not to
mention trying to finish the manuscript for my book (listed below)!
The home that I own in Key West, which I have named Lizard Farm (shown
left), is located on the mangrove-lined waterfront facing
the Gulf of Mexico in Roosevelt Annex. It has 3 beds, 3 baths, a small pool
and two coconut trees in the back yard, and two decks for viewing the incredible
daily sunset.
