I'm now a CS PhD student at UCI.  My new web page can be found here.

In addition, my wife and mother-in-law have started a business specializing in chair covers and linens
for weddings and special events.  More information is available at Forver Linens Chair Covers.

Hi, my name is Erik Linstead, and as of March 2003 I am an alumnus of Stanford University's department
of  Computer Science .  I recently graduated with my M.S. in Computer Science, emphasis in database systems.
Before that I spent a few years at  Chapman University where I graduated in May of 2001 with one B.S. in
Computer Science, and another in Computer Information Systems.  Right now it looks like my M.S. may be the
end of school for a while for me, but I often think my future lies in academia, and thus, a Ph.D. program.  Seeing as how I have
a while to decide, I try not to worry about it too much.  In the mean time, I try to keep up on my would-be research
interests, namely databases, AI, and most recently, robotics.
