Mark Dickson, BS, BA, MA

After seven years in academia pursuing a strange combination of degrees ranging from math to literature, Mark strayed off the academic path to begin a career in technology, beginning with a year of service in Americorps. He has focused on nonprofits, arts organizations and individuals, and independent businesses, with an emphasis on Free Software, Open Standards, and user empowerment. When he's not glued to a computer, he's probably cooking vegan meals, writing songs, reading, gardening, or riding/building his bike.
