a Franciscan
I took my vows of life profession in the Third Order of the Society of St. Francis on October 1, 2006. I currently serve as the webmaster for the Province of the Americas of the Order.

I'm very interested in designing programs for schools. I believe that pre-packaged systems usually don't work for schools (especially small and/or
private schools), and so I tend to work on designing things that work the way the school and teachers think, rather than trying to get the school
and teachers to think the way the program does.
Web design and programming projects:
A Third Way is my design company. We make products for school use based on
a new model I call "giftware". We don't charge for our products, but we ask people who like and use our stuff to
donate to charity.
St. Andrew's Latin Department. Most of the cool features require a password, but I hope to have non-passworded
demos up this summer. This site includes study materials, interactive tests, and the "Translator 1.0" program where my students translate, notate,
and scan Latin literature online.
inForm is a web-based system for teachers to quicky and easily notify parents about a child's grades and behavior while keeping all relevant
parties in the loop without clogging inboxes.
I was the original designer of the Canon Portkey and
Timelines for the Harry Potter Lexicon, although I am no longer working on this.
