About Me

I live on the Central Coast of California (Santa Barbara) with my life partner and two dogs. I collect a variety of things, including bookmarks, slide rules, and comics. By profession I'm an engineer, but I'm also a woodworker, teach improv, and volunteer at various organizations. I like to say that my hobby is hobbies.

Favorite Books

I generally read science-fiction and graphic novels

Favorite Crafts

Currently, I'm doing a lot of woodturning and other woodwork

Comment: Fabulous job Alan! I was very excited to learn my swap partner was a wood turner. And I wasn't disappointed. I'll be using the book thong as a decoration hanging by my craft desk. Thank you so much!

Comment: Hi Alan - thank you so much for such a nice and unique bookmark. I'll have to be careful with it because I have a dog who thinks he's a cat and cats who think that they are dogs; meaning that it will be irrestible to them "oh a chew toy"!

Hi Alan, I just mailed your bookmark for the Darwin Day swap. Hope you will enjoy it. I marked it "do not bend" and hope it will arrive in good shape.
