Scott was born in Illinois and raised in a small town. He attended state universities there eventually graduating with a degree in Computer Science from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale in 1981.

After college he moved to Massachusetts to work as a software engineer on a variety of projects including compilers, optical inspection systems, two stints in dot-com era start-ups, finally ending up at Verocel, Inc. a company specializing in safety-critical software and systems.

He enjoys following minor league baseball (including his beloved Lowell Spinners), major league teams including the Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs, and even a little football (though he makes no claims about knowing anything about it). He also reads a great deal, follows politics, current events, and even a little celebrity gossip.

Scott's been known to put pen to paper (or type, as the case may be) with opinions about lots of stuff. He has blogged on software engineering at Artima, Java at java.net, and lightweight DXpeditioning in his blog The 100 Pound DXpedition.

Here's little Neutrino, the last of the subatomic particle cats, in her favorite spot. Her sister Muon and big friend Pion graced us for many years with their charm, wit, and affection. With Neutrino now gone the condo is a quiet place. They are missed.


Sandy with her great smile on the streets of San Francisco. It is hard to believe we've been together nearly 30 years. Time does fly when you're having fun!


As a former company president once told me, "you clean up real good!" (sic) Here I am flanked by two of Verocel's three owners George Romanski (left) and Jim O'Leary (right) at a trade show.
