| Hello
all, and
thanks again for joining me on this EBT journey. In my professional
life, I am a Senior Instructional Designer with Interactive Media Corp.,
a McLean, VA-based company which develops multimedia training for corporate
and government clients. Before joining the Web-based training industry
I studied and taught in my academic field of U.S. history; my teaching
background includes stints at Yale University and the University of
Baltimore.

| In
my private time
I am an avid railroad
preservationist, photographer and writer. From 1994 through 1996, I
was a volunteer brakeman and conductor at the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Museum, located at 601 W. Pratt Street in downtown
Baltimore, Marylandthe birthplace of North American railroading.
Beginning in April of 1999, I entered train service with the Walkersville
Southern Railroad in Walkersville, MD. Join us any summer Saturday
or Sunday for a scenic five-mile ramble on the former Frederick Secondary
of the once-mighty Pennsylvania Railroad. I also proudly serve as Associate
Editor of Railway Preservation News,
the online magazine of railway history and preservation edited by Bob
Yarger and published by Hume Kading.
