I am a New York certified pyrotechnician (that is, licensed to conduct fireworks displays) and a licensed manufacturer of explosives.

I am a charter member, treasurer and Webmaster of the Comic Book Club of Ithaca, the longest-running comic book club in the United States.

I am a founder and organizer of ITHACON, the second longest-running comic convention in the US.

Since 1974, I've been a dealer in back-issue comic books. I sell on Ebay as comicsfirst.

I retired from Cornell University as a security engineer in 2018.
