Gravitated toward the more technical aspects of design after trying to be an artist but never quite tapping into the yourself/nonself concept. Studied physics, philosophy and psychobiology in college. Has worked on a 35,000-pin, 4 GHz (on the PCB) digital design. Prefers analog which he regards as sculpting in electromagnetic space (he's not quite ready to give up on that artist thing). Acknowledges John Curl's knowledge of circuitry at all levels helped him become a better designer. Points out with pride that “Virtually everything I've worked on lately has been notably successful.” Not a bad place to be for a frustrated artist.
