The Office

For the past decade I have worked part time as a computer consultant at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr, formerly Hale and Dorr, where I was formerly a Senior Partner. In June, 2000, I became Co-Director of the firm's Information Technology department. I left the firm in February, 2005.

I'm co-founder of FreshAddress.com the free worldwide registry of old and new email addresses. Check it out!

One of my current projects is a mailing list and membership directory called MemDir.org. I'm currently hosting half a dozen groups, all using the same code with customization defined by database parameters.

I wrote the campaign database for Jarrett Barrios' successful campaign for the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1998. My database was expanded and used for his successful campaign for the Massachusetts Senate in 2002. I took a stab at marketing it with Jarrett's campaign manager as Votemaker but it turned out to be too labor intensive.

I was for 3-1/2 years Co-Chair (and for several more years a board member) of The Harvard Gay & Lesbian Caucus. I also served for three years as a member of the Board and Subscription Manager of The Gay & Lesbian Review (originally the Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review).

I served for three years on the Board, and two years as the Co-Chair, of Chiltern Mountain Club.

I recently finished four years as a member of the Board of Cambridge Community Television.

In 1988 I co-edited The Massachusetts Zoning Manual, which is published by MCLE.

In 1985 I wrote the original version of CompareRite, a computer program used by lawyers and businesspeople which was marketed by Jurisoft, which was acquired by Lexis-Nexis, which was acquired by Reed-Elsevier, a multinational legal publisher. Unfortunately, CompareRite has now been discontinued.
