Teachers

Robert Y Elphick - MAGIC President. Robert lives in Coupeville, Whidbey Island. He was educated in Britain with degrees in Applied Physics and Geophysics & Planetary Physics. He has worked in the oil & gas industry and the space industry.

He is retired and spends much of his time volunteering with MAGIC, 4-H and other organizations. He has taught many schools on the use of Macintoshes. He usually chairs the Q&A sessions at MAGIC meetings as well as making presentations.

He is also a MAGIC Mentor/Wizard.

Gary McIntyre - MAGIC Treasurer. Gary McIntyre was born and raised in Denver, Colorado, and graduated from the University of Colorado with a degree in Economics. He worked for AT&T and several Asia-based telecommunications companies over a thirty year career. His responsibilities included middle to senior management positions in operations, product development, and sales. He and his wife, Brynn, love sailing so decided to retire in the Northwest and live in Sierra on Whidbey Island.

Their daughters helped him "see the light" a few years ago, and he and Brynn are now PC free. They enjoy playing on their iPad, Mac, iPod-touch, and Macbook Air.

Ron Sharp - MAGIC Editor. I was born late in the evening and the constellation Apple was bright in the sky! In the early 90's an Apple computer found me. It was a 16 MHz with 80 MB drive. I was already into technology, diagnosing automobile driveability problems, when I completed an Apple Technical Training course on DVD. Things have changed a lot since then but my interest remains and I enjoy the diagnostic challenges. I'm currently studying Objective C in hopes of writing software eventually, but time will tell how far I get with that hobby.

I'm a Northwest native, lived in California a few years, and moved to Whidbey in 2000. I have some interest in writing and took on the MAGIC newsletter project. Although my computer skills are much better than my writing skills, I continue to do the newsletter.
