About :: Benj Lipchak :: Part I

I was born in Boston, MA on June 6, 1975.  It snowed in Boston that day.  I have an older sister, Maggie, and a younger brother, Paul.  My dad is an engineer at Raytheon, and he's been working there since his co-op while a student at MIT. My mom has been many things, including carpenter and COTA.

I grew up in South Natick, MA.  I lived there until I was nine.  Then we moved to Sterling, MA so my mom could keep horses again.  I went to Wachusett Regional High School in Holden, MA.  But I spent my senior year at the Mass Academy of Math and Science on the WPI campus in Worcester.  I then continued to pursue my BS and MS degrees at WPI.  When I wasn't studying, I was doing theatre.

After getting my BS in Computer Science and Technical Writing with the class of '95, I was recruited into the Alpha Workstation Graphics group at DEC.  I worked at DEC until Compaq bought them, at which point I quit and became a contractor for Compaq.  I was writing X11/OpenGL graphics drivers and managing projects.
