Chris Lea is, on his better days, a developer. He started out on the East Coast, going to school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and earning a bachelor's degree in physics with highest honors and distinction. Fortunately, he managed to escape graduate school and made it to sunny Los Angeles, which is where he currently spends most of his time. If you track him down, it's likely that he will be playing around with Linux, Apache, PHP, and other related bits of software. For fun, he sees his friends, plays his guitar, and harasses Mike Buzzard over instant messenger.
