About

Hi! I am a software developer, pianist, and theater music director currently based in the Albany, NY area. I am also a recent graduate of Bard College and Conservatory of Music, where I received a B.A. in Computer Science and Mathematics, and a B.M. in Piano Performance.

What’s a Wee Aldrich?

I was born Gan Wui Ming, following the Chinese convention where the last name appears first. After moving to the United States, I went by Wui-Ming Gan and later Ming Gan. When I married my wife, we both hyphenated our last names. Today, I go by Ming Aldrich-Gan both professionally and socially.

Software

I currently work as a software developer at Business Automation Services, Inc.

Here is my résumé (view LaTeX source).

You can also read my senior project in Computer Science and Mathematics at Bard College. Source code is available upon request.

If you really want to, you could check out some old Visual Basic games I made in high school at my old and deprecated website.

Piano

Please check out Bach (Busonified)*, a recording of my senior recital at the Bard Conservatory of Music, or visit my Piano Society page to listen to some of my older recordings.

*It’s currently out of stock at CD Baby, but if you’re interested, let me know and I will get you a copy.

Musical Theater

I am the Music Director for the Schenectady Light Opera Company’s production of Hairspray, which opens on Friday, 11 May 2012 and runs for two weekends.

Other recent shows as Music Director include C-R ProductionsLegally Blonde (March 2012) and Les Misérables: School Edition (November 2011). I also directed, musically directed, and acted in shows throughout college. For a list of shows, please email me.
