I am a wireless communications technology intellectual property forensics expert, conducting IP offensive and defensive analysis of wireless portfolios for various firms. I am also a theology faculty member.

Prior to September 2006, I was a Principal Engineer and managed a team of patent engineering technologists and law school interns within Intel Corporation' Patents and Licensing Group. My team and I worked with Intel's attorneys on various offensive and defensive intellectual property matters. I had been working at Intel since 1999, first as the Wireless Computing Enhancement Architecture Lab (WCEL) Director and later as the Chief Intel PCA Software Architect. Later I moved to the Intel Communications Group group and worked on multimedia protocol optimizations for Intel ViiV technology before moving to Intel Legal.

Prior to joining Intel I was the CEO of IsoQuantic Technologies, a company I founded in 1994. IQ Tech developed software for cellular radio base stations and satellite control systems. My GSM cellular base station patented implementation helped AirNet Communications win a 1998 GSM World Congress technical achievement award.

Before IQ Tech, I worked in Motorola's Cellular Infrastructure Division in Arlington Heights, IL designing the first GSM & CDMA cellular radio systems, and later on the Iridium project (don't get me started) in Chandler, AZ.

My undergrad focus area was high frequency microwave circuit design and my doctorate is in the field of stochastic modeling (queueing theory). I am an expert in simulation and modeling, and in the hardware or software aspects of wireless communications, especially cellular radio technologies and protocols.

I have taken other turns in my many career moves, such Alcatel Networks, GTE, or Asst. Professor at So. Illinois Univeristy, Augusta College, and Depaul University. I have taught undergrad and graduate level digital communications, computer architecture, physics, optical communications, computer modeling, statistics, mathematics, management, and computer science courses. Then there were those six long years in the Army, including stints as a combat demolitions expert in Vietnam and Judge Advocate General Corps legal clerk. Alas, all that military service did a number on my psyche, so I spent seven years studying and teaching theology (M.Div., STL) the while in seminary during my Jesuit walk, followed by taking an M.S. degree in Adult Education, before my journey in education ended with a engineering Ph.D.

In my “spare time” I collaborate with some theologian buddies of mine as the proprietor of the non-profit Ask Mr. Religion (AMR) theology question and answer service (since 1994!). I am a faculty member at the Puritan Reformed Biblical Seminary, founder of the Reformed Theology Institute , and Group Owner of the LinkedIN RTI discussion Group. In theology, I’m a Calvinist, creationist , inerrantist , cessationist , classical Christian theist , and amillennial. On the sacraments, I take them to be symbolic. I regard other issues in sacramentology as secondary to this primary position. I believe in the primacy and perspicuity of divine revelation in Scripture. In ethics, I subscribe to traditional Christian morality, rooted God’s revealed law as the source and standard of personal and social ethics. I also hold to a infralapsarian[/URL] theodicy. I fully subscribe to the Westminster Confession of Faith

Being nocturnal by nature, most nights I can be found sitting outside on my pool deck way past 2 or 3 AM smoking a fine cigar and sipping single barrel Jack Daniels, gently illuminated by the subtle glow of my ever-present laptop while blogging at TOL, answering questions as a Chaplain at Christian Forums  occasionally tweaking Wikipedia theology entries, or participating at various internet theological discussion sites.
