ALEXANDER FALK



In today's social media-focused and hyper-connected world it is perhaps unusual
to find a "good old personal website". However, I've been active in the software
industry since 1983 and have seen platforms come and go (dare I mention AOL,
Geocities, MySpace, etc.), so I believe in maintaining a web presence that is
indeed reachable from anywhere, is under my full control, and is not part of any
particular silo.

Nonetheless I do maintain a presence on most social media sites, too, so please
feel free to follow me on Twitter or connect with me on any of the other sites
on the left, but please do write a short note on where we met or how you know me
so that I can approve those connections appropriately. If you're really
old-school, you can also reach me on the amateur radio bands. My ham radio
operator call-sign is K1XML.


ROTARY

I have been an active member of Rotary for 13+ years, previously served as
President (2018-19) of the Marblehead Rotary Club. I currently serve as District
Governor 2022-23 of Rotary District 7930, which covers Northeastern
Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire.
