In my professional life, I’m working in a new lab in Georgetown University while I’m learning new techniques like micro-arrays which will provide useful data about a number of important pathways in the direction of our research.

In my business life, I’ve blogged with an effort to increase awareness of DC area art on artdc.com while I pushed the limits of the artdc community on artdc.org .  As always I’m really pleased to see a cohesive nature budding in the DC area art scene, which was part of our goal when we started artdc.org.  My thoughts go out to all of the artists who showed up to that first meeting at Teaism in March of 2004.  We’ve done things that I never knew were possible, from starting a gallery to working with developers to do pop-up exhibitions and developing face-to-face relationships that started on the internet.  We’ve developed a powerful tool, we look forward to taking it to new places.

Life has been moving at an amazing pace with muscle truck force; developing multiple shows in the same month while working hard in biotech research.  It’s an exiting opportunity to be surrounded by so many unique opportunities and outlets.  While there are many sleepless nights, I look forward to seeing what’s next.

Details and information about new shows at artdc.com. 

On June 13th there will be an opening for a new exhibition of sculpture from 3 amazing  local artists.  We look forward to seeing you there!

During the day, I’m still working at Georgetown, this time I’m working as a Technician for a Med-School Microbiology class. This has been quite an experience working in large numbers like this. It reminds me of my days out of college working in a production lab. It’s a different world from research, but still a great feeling to produce an experiment that works.

In the mean time, check out the progress at dcbio.org, the community is growing there…
