Phillip W. Hammond

UNH College of Life Science
and Agriculture
Information Technologist

I am originally from Manchester, NH. where I attended high school at Manchester Memorial HS and the Advanced Studies Program (ASP) at St. Paul's School in Concord NH. As you might suspect, I am also a graduate of UNH (Biology, which was my subject area at ASP) who returned one day to work here. Sometimes, I feel like I've never really left this place!

Usually I spend my non-work hours reading Science Fiction, Fishing, Hiking, Boating, working in Community Theater (lights, producing), and playing historical board and minatures games (alright, war gaming ;-) ). My interests also include coin collecting, model rockets (the kind that fly), enjoying good wines, Rock&Roll-R&B-Blues music, and classic muscle cars (like our summer toy!).

My wife Laura and I now live in East Rochester, NH. We both compute daily (I do Windows mostly, she has her Macs). Beside sharing printers, we also Fish&Hike&Camp Out&Sometimes Do Theater together.

  • University of New Hampshire, Bachelor's of Science Degree in Biology
