Welcome to Crad's Page of Webness   Last updated: 04/12/2004

Every self-respecting computer scientist should have a web page and this is mine. The kitty on my shoulders is Noe (two syllables -- just pronounce all the letters). I found her in my backyard when she was four days old, abandoned by her mother after a small earthquake. I also have a big cat, named Marcel. I adopted him from the wonderful Maddie's Adoption Center at the San Francisco SPCA.

I live in San Francisco's Castro district with my girlfriend, Trina. We live in a wonderful 90-year-old Edwardian building. It has pretty much everything I was looking for in a house: character and history, walking distance to shops, bars and restaurants, easy access to freeways and public transportation, but, alas, no parking. Luckily, street parking is pretty easy in this neighborhood.

I play piano in a jazz combo called Gafas de Soul. Our drummer, Shan, came up with the name. "Gafas de sol" is Spanish for "sunglasses," so we figured Gafas de Soul was a clever play on words, and could be translated to "windows on the soul" which is kind of a neat way to think about jazz.

This page was constructed using Microsoft Frontpage and a bunch of other tools. I beg forgiveness to the gods of css for using tables for formatting.
