About Me

CURRENT MISSION

bringing accountability to public utility industries

ABOUT ME

My wife (Maggi) and I, married 26 yrs, live just outside Washington DC. Our 18 year old lives outside the house. I run a research institute devoted to making public utilities (electricity, gas, telecomm, water) accountable and efficient. Maggi, a former prosecutor, is now a ceramicist. We have a big dog named Sam, 11 yrs old and nutty but sweet. I am a cellist in my spare time. We listen to classical and jazz. I run and play tennis and lift weights; Maggi swims. We like to read, go to movies and concerts. We are in our 50s-early 60s but very young.

PHILOSOPHY

Good Lord put us here to do right, so we try to do right, caring for others and the environment.
