I manage the OLPC Learning Club which meets monthly in the Washington, D.C. area. Consisting primarily of first-round G1G1 users, the group attracts kids, parents, adult enthusiasts and even seniors. We meet most often at the Gallaudet University Student Union, Nortel Networks and the Arlington Career Center. There are also random meetups, salons and parties.
My day job is at AARP Headquarters in Washington, D.C. where I am one of the directors of the team that operates the public web site AARP.org. Part of my job involves acting as AARP's liaison to the MIT Media Lab where we are a sponsor. That's how I came to know Walter Bender and Nicholas Negroponte and followed their move to OLPC.
I live in Wheaton, Maryland, just north of the D.C. beltway with my wife Amy and daughter Cianna. My wife loves gadgets of all kinds too and works as a web director at KaBoom! which builds playgrounds all over the U.S. Cianna (born Nov. 2003), when presented with a lineup of laptops consisting of the Asus Eee PC, Intel Classmate 2 and the OLPC XO-1 said, "I like the green one!"
