I’m from Huntsville, Alabama where I work as a web developer and part-time banjo and mandolin instructor. I’ve been playing various instruments since my teen years. I started mandolin at about age 17 and banjo at 20.
I love just about all kinds of music. In terms of banjo styles, I play Scruggs and melodic and am working on becoming more advanced with single string. I’m also working on 4-finger banjo, which is way off the beaten path. I would like to see more jazz techniques integrated into bluegrass situations; counterpoint, especially. So long-term, that’s what I’m doing.
Web-wise, I mainly work with ColdFusion, Javascript, CSS, EXT-JS, Flex and SQL Server. I would love to learn more Flash.
I’m also very keen on astronomy, ATM (amateur telescope making), birding, christian homeschooling, martial arts, organic gardening and about 30 other distracting hobbies to a (mercifully) lesser extent.
