Summary: I work in Antarctica from time to time. My blog is the best way to keep track of what I’m up to while I’m away; you can also subscribe to email updates by entering your email address in the box below where it says “FOLLOW BLOG VIA EMAIL” over on the right.
My Antarctic experience consists of work:
- On the Research Vessel/Icebreaker Nathaniel B. Palmer intermittently as a Systems/Network Administrator from Aug-Sep 2014 through the present.
- At Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station during Nov 2010 – Feb 2011 as “The Helpdesk at the Bottom of the World.”
