I’m retired after a career of 35 years in Information Technology and prior to that 10 years of Real Estate property management/development. Though retired, I am busy with a number of projects.

My cultures are very close to my heart.

The newest project I am involved in is Turtle Island, which is a collection of social media servers and the web server you are reading right now. The flagship is a Mastodon instance of the decentralized ActivityPub network (The Fediverse) for my Native relatives and non-Native friends. Reach me there at @Yehuda@TurtleIsland.social. Most recently, I added a Bluesky PDS (Personal Data Server) also for my Native relatives and non-Native friends. Reach me there at @Yehuda.TurtleIs.land.

Last but not least, I am an activist to fight homelessness, support Native and decolonization causes, and fight the corrupt politics and politicians of the settler colonial nation-state. I am currently part of an organization that on an average day provides 350 people temporary shelter and 100 senior citizens affordable housing.

Many of these links are accessible from the main menu bar.

Thanks!
