Alright, here's some information about …me… Dan Jewett.
I'm from…
…in rough chronological order, New York, New Jersey, Kansas, Ohio, Kansas, and New York.
I did this because…
I created Solid Ether, because I want to help people experience the liberating aspects of communicating electronically rather than those that are tedious and frustrating.
Accordingly, logical order, simplicity, and ease of use are my design priorities.
This is really a necessity for me as I have two daughters, 8 and 1, for whom the words logic and order are only strange noises devoid of meaning.
On rare occasions, when the stars align to supply baby-sitting, my wife Anne and I enjoy slipping away from our home in Sleepy Hollow, NY* to hear some Jazz in NYC.
Some non-computer related things I've done:
- Restoration painting of Victorian style homes - Lawrence, KS
- Director of Sky Ryders Drum & Bugle Corps - Hutchinson, KS
- Rowing coach at the University of Kansas & Director of the Cincinnati Rowing Center
- Stunt double for Chow Yun Fat in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"**
- Fashion consultant to J-Lo***
*Yes, there really is such a place and he is seen around here from time to time.
**Well, OK. Not really on that one.
***You laugh?
