Bio:
By day, I'm the Learning Platform Administrator at the Stanford Graduate School of Business where I work to develop and execute their vision for a comprehensive learning environment.
By night, I play violin in an awesome orchestra.
Being a geek, I'm not afraid of the command line or a custom Android ROM. Being a "connector," I thrive by engaging campus and open source communities.
I slogged my way through a PhD in Journalism & Mass Communication with a fun topic -- copyright and social theory.

It's not quite exactly what I had in mind, as the duplication is tied to the original date, but it goes a long way towards what the intention was. I would have to test to be sure, but I'd imag...
