One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saved somebody's life once. I really did not expect it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am interested in people who are open-minded, perceptive and opinionated.

I know something about the Mac office environment, data encryption, Adobe Lightroom, Nik Photo Efex Pro, high dynamic range images, and full-frame digital photography.

My photos appear at http://www.flickr.com/photos/21226585@N02.

Professionally, I have experience in divorce, estate planning and small business law in Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia. I am particularly interested in the psychology of human relations.
