At Dartmouth, Bryan is responsible for overseeing the design, installation, and operation of the campus network. This work includes developing network automation systems and data sources, fine tuning processes for rapid deployment, and the creation of custom software and hardware to suit. As a firm believer that Layer 1 can make or break your day, his work also involves the less glamorous crawling through the basements and mechanical spaces of a 250 year old campus and dealing with the architectural and physical infrastructure challenges that come with it. Prior to his work at Dartmouth, Bryan enjoyed a career in show business as an engineer and programmer for special effects, robotics, lighting, sound, and video systems for some of the world's top acts. Bryan is also an Adjunct Professor of Computer Networking for the Community College System of New Hampshire.
