I am Rob Weir. I grew up in Saugerties, New York. I’ve also lived in Cambridge, Somerville and Westford Massachusetts. I currently live in Dover, New Hampshire. I am a 1991 graduate of Harvard College, with a degree in Astronomy and Astrophysics.
Professionally, I am a member of the ACM and the Apache Software Foundation.
I also collect hobbies. I am a member of the American Philatelic Society, the United States Chess Federation, the New England Historic Genealogical Society, the American Association of Variable Star Observers, and I am a trained SkyWarn weather spotter. I play trombone, bagpipes, djembe, doumbek, didgeridoo and ukulele rather poorly, and recorder rather well. Whether or nor I sing is as yet an unresolved question, greatly in dispute. My photography has been published in several magazines, and recently was shown in a curated gallery exhibit.
