- About the Author
-
- Erik J. Heels has been writing about law and technology since 1992 (when
- The Legal List was first released) and is starting his second decade on
- the Internet. His first started when he entered the Massachusetts
- Institute of Technology in 1984. He graduated from MIT in 1988 with a
- degree in electrical engineering. In the years following MIT, he spent
- four years as a United States Air Force officer and worked for various
- high-tech firms in the Route 128 region of Boston. His interest in law
- and technology led him to the University of Maine School of Law in
- Portland, Maine, from where he graduated (early) in December 1994.
- Before entering the Air Force, Erik spent some time working as an
- engineer in Finland. While in Finland, he met Pirjo, whom he married
- three years later. He now works for Lawyers Cooperative Publishing out
- of their offices at Counterpoint Publishing in Cambridge, MA, where he
- is an Internet Systems Architect. Erik and Pirjo and their one-year-old
- son, Samuel, now live in Eliot, Maine.
