I contain multitudes
I am a father, a husband, a friend, a cat owner, and a Chicagoan. I am a historian by education, an information manager by trade, a data scientist by hobby, and a database architect and administrator by necessity. I am a rusty musician and singer, a fast and loose D&D DM, a joyful armchair philosopher, and an unpublished novelist.
