Edward Schneider (Senior Warden, Finance and Administration) I have attended Olivet since 1997 and am in my second tour on the vestry; I have also previously served on vestries in the dioceses of Texas and Central New York. I am married to Ann and we have two daughters and two grand daughters. By profession, I am a computer scientist specializing in distributed systems and security at the Institute for Defense Analyses; I will also be teaching Network Security at the University of Maryland on Thursdays this spring. At Olivet, I serve as a LEM, a lector, a projector operator, and a greeter. In the diocese, I have been a representative to Council, have been lay director for Cursillo and served on several Cursillo teams, and currently am vice chair on the Region VI council. I strongly believe that actions must be based on piety and study and so try to maintain a discipline of daily prayer and meditation and regular bible study.
