Hi,
I’m David Chaney.

Born in Quincy, Illinois and raised in New Haven, Indiana, I’ve been living in Wichita since 1995. I graduated in 1999 and attended Wichita State University, University of Kansas, Cowley County, and Southwestern College. I have a scholastic background in Computer Science and American Sign Language, and received my BS in Security Management from SWC. I’m currently enrolled at SWC and will attain my Masters in Leadership in a few short months.

I’m currently attached to the lovely Jenny and spend most of my time between school, work, and friends. In my little free time I am an avid technophile. I also enjoy studying organizational leadership theory and money management; this blog will tend to drift to that extent. I listen to a wide array of music, including David Byrne, The Real Tuesday Weld, Aquagen, Ian Pooley, Jem, Daft Punk, Nicola Conte, The Bad Plus, Aesop Rock, Jurassic 5, The Roots, mc chris, Dangerdoom, Count Bass D, Imogen Heap, and Midival Punditz. My classes require a lot of reading, but I usually have a book on my bedside table. I also enjoy reading blogs such as personal finance blogs, leadership journals, and anything techno- or Kansas-centric. I work within the leadership echelon for a large, progressive Wichita company whose challenges provide ample problem-solving opportunities to satisfy my organizational development hobbies.

I welcome comments, feedback, and contributions!
