Supercomputing Technologies Factotum
Don't know what a factotum is? Check out Merriam Webster online!

I joined the Supercomputing Technologies Group in the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science in October of 1998. Although I pretty much live for the heady rush I get from working with the world's greatest geeks and performing some of the most exciting research on the planet, I have several other interests as well; however, I will leave them to the imagination for the most part. I've been involved with Revels, Inc. as both performer (vocalist on two recordings and in several stage productions) as well as technical specialist (specifically, Props Goddess for the Cambridge-based productions.) I'm also a mom, and am happy to show off my son Gabriel. To see what else is of interest to me, visit my local home page. Or, if you dare, visit my journal, Breath of Life or check out the dailies.
