About Me

Born in Queens, NY in 1942, I spent my first five years living with my mother, grandmother, aunt, and great-grandfather in Queens.
 
My father returned from WW II and we moved to Somers, NY, where I attended Somers Central School from K through 12.
 
Graduating from HS in 1960, I went to College at University of Colorado, and promptly flunked out.
 
After serving in the US Army for three years, I married my HS sweetheart, Peg Erickson; unfortunately that marriage wasn't successful, and we divorced after two years.
 
For eight years, I managed a hippie coffee house in Denver, sold very high-end audio equipment, and ultimately decided to finally pursue my college education in Fall 1974.

This time, more motivated, I finished a BS degree in Electrical Engineering and went on to complete a masters degree in EE at MIT.

I was ill suited to being a working engineer, and after a few jobs, I taught Electrical Engineering at both University of Colorado and at Metropolitan State College of Denver from 1984 until retiring in 2003 - BEST DAMNED JOB OF MY LIFE!!!

Now I have resettled in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico where I have been living Since August 30, 2021. 

In May 2022, I met my wife, Taly, and we lived together since June 2022, and married since June 2023.

Taly was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s shortly after we married, and the disease has progressed so rapidly that in Aug 2026 she moved to her property in Byron Bay Australia, where she will receive free state-supplied health care, much of it in-home. Her propterty has three buildings: The main house where her son’s family live, a small, but very nicely appointed granny flat where she will live, and a garage which has been converted into a living spaces for occasional guests.
