About: Work: IA & UX design & consulting, currently (mainly) in-house at Vanguard.
Background: winding path through philosophy major, theology, english & creative writing, with some carpet cleaning, lit publishing, table waiting and article scribbling thrown in for flavor.
People: I like meeting pretty much anybody who isn't a fundamentalist (of any stripe) and likes a good conversation, as long as it's not about sports (about which I know nothing).
Andrew ... (random facts):
1. Used to play guitar in a bluegrass band (was 12).
2. Sat next to Amy Carter at his high-school graduation.
3. Is introverted. No, really. Seriously... why are you laughing?
4. Can rarely make it through a whole book.
5. Thought AI was a great movie, and will happily explain why you should agree.
