I am a physicist by degree, a photonics engineer by trade and an Orthodox Christian by faith. My interests include Japanese-style gardening and bonsai, Japanese language and literature, and fine coffee.
I studied Tae Kwon Do for a little over a year but dropped it when I relocated. My last belt level was GREEN.
I am originally from New Castle, PA and currently live in a suburb of Pittsburgh, after spending numerous years in Boston and Columbus, OH, as well as some time in Northern California, Tokyo and Montana.
Here are some more pictures of me from 2002-2008. Find me on Facebook if you want to see some older ones.
I occasionally get riled up and write a letter to the editor. You can read my rantings here.
For more information about my work and education, see my resume. (plain ASCII)
Don't confuse me with boxing champion James "Lights Out" Toney, the late character actor Jim Toney or martial arts grandmaster James B. Toney. |
