about

My name is Aaron Lebo. I am from Dallas, Texas. I've been doing computer programming in a number of languages since 2005, and have a PhD in political science at the University of Texas at Dallas. I'm fascinated by the ability of information and communication to change the world for the better.

I own a red-nosed pitbull named Teddy Roosevelt.
