Revision as of 22:55, 23 December 2007

I'm a baby-boomer Canadian currently teaching English and IT subjects in China. My academic qualifications are a BA in Psychology and a Certificate in Teaching English as a Second Language, both from Carleton U in Ottawa.

I've spent two substantial chunks of my career as a teacher -- 1978-83 and now 2002-2008, mainly because that is a good way to support travel. At other times I've worked in computing, mostly as a technical writer but a bit of everything else too. I'm interested in computer security and co-authored one conference paper [1] on cryptography, specifically block cipher design.

I wrote most of the documentation for the FreeS/WAN project [2], a Linux implementation of the IPsec encryption protocols. I have permission User_talk:Sandy_Harris/Permission to re-use that text here.
