I grew up in Helena, Montana. One of my High School Mathematics teachers got me access to the first computer that I used: the IBM 1620.
I earned my Bachelor of Science Electronics Engineering Technology (BSEET) from DeVry Institute of Technology in Phoenix, Arizona. There I had access to a UNIVAC 1106 computer, a system I always found specially interesting.
I currently live in Sunnyvale, California, with two cats, and work in San Jose, California.
I was a member of a team of volunteers that restored to operational condition the IBM 1620 Model I in the Computer History Museum (http://www.computerhistory.org) collection, in Mountain View, California at 1401 Shoreline Blvd. (http://www.computerhistory.org/bldg/shoreline/) I am now a member of two teams of volunteers there: one restoring a PDP-1 and the other restoring an IBM 1401.
Here are photos of samples of the 81 non-radioactive elements.
