Biography of Robin Lee Powell

Robin Lee Powell was born in December, 1975, and has been involved with Lojban since the late nineties. He moved quickly from being an enthusiastic 'newbie' to mastering the language, and finally to doing much of the the hard work of keeping the organization going - such as rewriting the website three times in his own time and with his own funds.

His willingness to labor for the organization, as well as his knowledge of the language, led to him becoming Secretary/Treasurer in 2006, a post which has presented great challenges but one which he has managed with considerable success. He has been re-elected to this post every year since.

Robin acknowledges an authoritorian streak to his character, but has gained the loyalty and admiration of the whole lojban community.

On a personal level, he has a B.Math from the University of Waterloo and is a professional systems administrator.

Robin lives and works in San Francisco, USA, and has a personal website.
