bienvenu(e)
Welcome to my corner of the web. I wear a bunch of different hats: I'm a father, a graduate student, a working computational linguist, a sometime sign language interpreter, and general-purpose geek.
gotta be me
Searching for another D. Parvaz? I'm pretty sure that I'm the only Dan Parvaz on the planet, but you might be looking for my sister, who goes by the name "D. Parvaz" in her work. Crucial differences: she's not a Dan; she's a she, and she's way cooler than I am.

This site was designed from the ground up to be standards-compliant and accessible, although there are pages which do rely on javascript plus some graphical presentation. Oh, and by the way: Made on a Mac, in OS X. My web design tool is a text editor, which for me means either vi or, jEdit if I'm feeling fancy. A confession is in order, though: I didn't design it. It's one of the many crisp, clean, fast-loading site designs available from the Open Source Web Design site. So while the content is mine, the look is not. Long live open source!
