Michael Stein
President
202.328.1785 ext.106
Michael is the founder of Members Only Software. A certified nerd with a degree in physics from MIT, Michael has been working closely with non-profits and associations since the early 70's, when he worked for the Berkeley Community Health Project in Berkeley, California. Later in D.C. he was appointed by the mayor to the State Health Coordinating Council, and currently serves on the board of Segida Keneyali: The Mali Health Organizing Project. When he's not glued to a keyboard and monitor he plays old time fiddle, cooks up a storm, and likes to get off the pavement and into the woods now and then.

Doria Howe
CFO
202.328.1785 ext.102
One of the founding partners of Members Only Software, Doria both tends the trees and surveys the forest. She represents Members Only to prospective clients and the community. She also monitors and guides the company's financial goals. Doria is very proud of our company's long standing partnership with our clients - those of many months and those of many years.
Doria has a B.A. from Duke University. Her first career was as a social worker in Protective Services for Children. After earning her Masters in Instructional Design from University of North Carolina, she produced educational films on staff for Legal Services and Save The Children. At GWU Medical Center, Doria designed her first computer-based instruction. The pixels were cast. Soon after, she joined Michael in his enthusiasm to pursue and develop Members Only Software, and since then it's been all software, all the time.
Doria is a great driver and a good friend. Once she reads one murder mystery, she reads the whole series.

Robin Matthews
Programmer

Robin has been with Members Only for over ten years. He had an earlier career as a commercial printer, and while living in New York City spent a couple of years editing an alternative poetry magazine called Sanskaras. He says most of his experience has been real-life, but at various times he studied at Rutgers, the New School for Social Research, and Goddard College ('73). Most of his computer science classes were at CCBC Catonsville. But he says the most educational experience of his life began when he and his soul-mate [didn't last] left New York in 1969 with all their worldly goods in a Volkswagen and spent two years roaming around New Mexico, camping out in the warm months, finding shelter and part-time employment when it got colder. He has a house and 40 mostly wooded acres in Piedmont Virginia now, and spends his free time taking walks and bicycle rides, enjoying the trees and the birds.
