About

You can call me Marsh or Marshall. I was born in Hoboken, raised in Nashville, and live just north of Boston. I'm married to (the amazing) Alejandra and parent of Meadow (human) and Daxter (pup).

I started and now run a climate and conservation company, {Upstream Tech} (see {Work and Pursuits of Toil} for a ... complete history). I love programming languages and design challenges. I'm also good at building high-performing teams, building a viable business, and (I'm told) management. I currently do a lot of the latter (the company leadership thing) and not as much of the former (programming languages - argh!).

I run and climb. Make {music}, {garden}, and play games with my childhood friends (my BG3 character is a bard named Goose Goose, if you were wondering, and she's awesome).

I like turning everyday things into an adventure, like a commute to work with {Early Werms} or {walking up a river}. I try to run a slow, unplanned, solo marathon once a year. I once reviewed milk on {Milk Advocate} with my friend Quinault (and then became almost vegan, now undone because of baby!).
