Jordan Kasper
Shortly after it arrived at his home in 1993, Jordan began disassembling his first computer—his mother was not happy. She breathed more easily when he moved from hardware into programming. Jordan’s experience includes companies large and small, universities, and various OSS projects. He also participates in user groups, conferences, barcamps, and hackathons.

In his down time, he enjoys puzzles of all sorts and board games!
