I previously graduated with high honors from an associate's degree program at Washtenaw Community College in criminal justice (2007). I also hold an associate's in liberal arts from Lansing Community College (1981).
From January 2004 to December 2010 I wrote the monthly "Internet Connections" column for the ANA Numismatist magazine. The ANA granted me two Heath Literary Awards: the first for an investigation into the origins of coinage; and another for a biography of Sir Isaac Newton's tenure as warden and master of the Royal Mint. When I was working toward a private pilot certificate, I submitted essays to www.studentpilot.com many of which are still archived there.
Researching hackers in the mid-80s to mid-90s, I posted to Computer Underground Digest and Phrack. Other features appeared in local and regional business magazines.
I serve as vice president for communications of Austin Tech Republicans. I was elected a Republican precinct delegate in Ann Arbor Township (2006-2008). I served for three years on the Washtenaw County, Michigan, county/city community corrections advisory board. In 1992, I ran for Congress as a Libertarian. I served two terms on the Board of Directors of the Michigan State Numismatic Society. I also served (2009-2011) as their webmaster for www.michigancoinclub.org. In 1991, I was a delegate representing the Michigan patron community at the White House Conference on Libraries and Information Systems.
