Commitments

What follows is a listing of the various projects, groups and organizations that I am involved with as well as some of my past affiliations.

Current

• Information Services and Technology
  I am currently a Senior Network Architect for the Infrastructure Services division of IST in the same group where I worked previously (IS was known as Communication and Network Services at the time).
• Consulting
  While as of this writing I am quite busy, from time to time I take on projects under contract.

Past

• Residential Computing
  For roughly 2.5 years I was the Systems Manager for ResComp where I managed the Programmer, System Administrator and Desktop Administrator teams. For a short time I was the acting manager of the Network and Infrastructure group for Residential and Student Service Programs.
• Communication and Network Services
  At CNS I worked on a number of projects (the common theme of which seems to have been authentication). The Authenticated Usenet Service project provides access to a campus newsgroup server from outside the campus network. Some of my work on this project is now a part of the INN Usenet server software, a project of the Internet Systems Consortium. As part of that project I coordinated and configured Usenet peering relationships and helped run the campus Usenet servers.

  Another project I worked on was a web authentication system implemented as an Apache transaction handler that replaces (and attempts to improve upon) basic auth. The system is integrated with CalNet authentication and directory services and allows one to protect static web pages and scripts in an easily configurable way.

  I also designed and implemented the AirBears Guest Account Service which allows faculty and staff to create temporary accounts for visitors they sponsor to access the campus wireless network.

• Computer Science Undergraduate Association
  I was the CSUA Vice-President for the Spring 2004 semester. My duties set forth in the Constitution included managing the CSUA computer systems, one of which was among the largest known multiuser FreeBSD servers (in terms of the number of simultaneous user sessions). I was also involved with the mentoring program and the Faculty Retreat Committee.
