Moved home to Nelson

After almost ten years in St. Louis, Sarajevo, and Vancouver, Gina and I moved back home to sleepy little Nelson, BC. There's 10,000 people here. No traffic jams. No smog. No noise. It's perfect. We bought a tidy little house, kind of like the one I grew up in, with a huge back yard and about 100 trees. We've painted, put down hardwood, and bashed out a few walls. Now we're getting a soundproof office put in downstairs so the kids can play while I work. I've started playing hockey again, after a 12-year hiatus. I'm still not any good, but I'm having a lot of fun.

About

I'm an intranet consultant living in Nelson, BC. My company is One Intranets Inc. I'm the co-creator of ThoughtFarmer, social intranet software that powers enterprise intranets in Microsoft environments. I've been consulting on web and intranet projects since 1995 with a particular emphasis on interface design, information architecture and usability analysis.

I live with my wife, Gina, and our three children, Ana (age 7), Sam (age 5), and Reuben (age 1). Gina is my best friend and the absolute bestest wife a man could ever find. Ana is the most hospitable and intuitive 7-year old you'll ever meet. Sam accosts strangers on the street and engages them in deep conversation. Reuben walks from room to room and creates disasters, washing his hands in the toilet, lifting cats by the tail and eating things he finds in the kitchen garbage.

When I'm not working I'm playing with my family: golf, swimming, snorkeling, hockey, skiing and extreme travel. We're currently escaping winter with a 4-month stint in St. Lucia, West Indies.
