Chris is a computer programmer for Oracle Corporation in Portland, Oregon. Kinnari is a former public finance attorney who now stays at home with our sons. Soren was born in April 2005 and is heading for a career as an actuary, where he can count things all day. Kirin was born in May 2008 and wants to do whatever his big brother does.

What we like
We keep ourselves busy exploring Portland and parenthood. Chris likes to tinker with computers and guitars. Kinnari likes 19th-century novels and spotting typos in restaurant menus. Soren likes to impersonate frogs, rabbits, and other hoppy things. Kirin likes to sleep.
