About Lyle Troxell

I'm Lyle Troxell, originally from Santa Cruz, California. I currently live in my home in Felton, California with my lovely wife Daria, our son Wyatt, our daughter Gwendolyn, our smart cat Isis and our dog Korkie.

I hold an Associate of Science degree in Electrical Technologies from Cabrillo Collage, Aptos, CA. I am autodidactic and have taught myself a bit about the sciences, woodworking, programing, web development, photography, art, and being a father.
I graduated from San Lorenzo Valley High School, Felton, California in 1992.

From mid 1997 to late 1999 I was involved heavily in the daily goings on at j2 Global Communications (formerly JFAX.COM) where I held down the fort as the Online Project Lead. In general I figured out what was damaged, missing or needed and facilitate its repair or creation. We ran IIS there, using a lot of ASP and COM objects in MTS to do the interaction with the back-end systems and credit card clearing houses. It was a good job, lots to do - flexed the mind.

Following JFAX.COM I worked as a contractor for Feed The Monster Media (FTM), they did focus on web sites for radio stations (for examples...KROQ and Live105) but they went out of buisness and didn't pay their employees for the last month. Any way I did lots of XML/XSLT and tools for clients to modify their sites.

Then I went to work for Pumatech as a Senior Engineer (Computer Programer... mostly web development). I did some work on IIS again (ASP in JavaScript - some XML/XSLT) and got to do some new stuff too; Tuxedo with Tomcat (jsp with a lot of servlets - beans), Responder (NTL - a pririotory replacement language) and some work with Enhydra and tomcat (more jsp and beans). Wrap that up with some Oracle 8i and that was that. Lot's of webserver stuff. Fun and chalanging. - You can take a look at some of my work at Intellisync.com (or you can as soon as my stuff get's up there. - Well the whole program was scratched - bye bye.)

In 2002 I started working at UCSC in the Division of the Arts as the Arts Administrative Systems Specialist, in general I supported staff with the computer systems in the Division and the University at large. The University, esp. the Arts Division, is an amazingly great place to work. Friendly people, good goal (education) and an atmospheare of warmth and well-being.

Right now I am the Technical Coordinator for the Digital Arts and New Media Master of Fine Arts program at UCSC. Check out Lyle at DANM for more info.

On the side I am the host of a weekly radio show GeekSpeak - Saturdays 10am PST on KUSP, Santa Cruz 88.9FM. GeekSpeak is a technology talk show. Listeners can tune in for general information about computers, internet, science, and general geeky things, and can call in to ask questions.
