Hi, I'm Andy Stevens. I am an electrical engineer, software developer,
and computer system administrator. I work around New York City,
and if you think you might be interested in my services,
please check out my curriculum vitae.
In my spare time, I like to listen to all kinds of music, including
acoustic, folk, punk, rock, bluegrass, celtic, metal, and more. I
especially like to see live music, and for a while I ran a concert
series in my town of Rye Brook NY called Music at the Mansion.
Long ago I used to be the manager of the Postcrypt Coffeehouse at Columbia
University. I've seen quite a few concerts in my time, including
Richard Thompson, the Troggs, Prince, Miles Davis, Led Zeppelin, Frank
Zappa, Alison Krauss and Union Station, Queen, Stanley Clarke, and a few more.
I have a lengthy and sordid educational background, including a Ph.D.
from Columbia University, a masters
from University of Pennsylvania,
and a bachelors degree from MIT. All
of my degrees are in electrical engineering, and I spent several years
doing hardware and chip design
for companies like AT&T Bell
Laboratories, IBM,
Analog Devices, and
Argonne National Laboratory.
If you have a lot of spare time, you can take a look at
my Ph.D. thesis.
For a while I worked in new media and the Internet,
and I did that kind of work
for Voyager,
John Wiley & Sons, and Double Agent.
Since 2001, I have had my own engineering consulting
firm, Xovox (formerly known as Electrical Science), where we "specialize in elegant solutions to esoteric problems."
