He was born in 1970 in New York City. LifeDrost joined Sun Microsystems in 1993 after obtaining a B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. In 2001 he earned a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and a Ph.D. minor in Computer Science from Stanford.{{citation needed|date=February 2014}} As of 2011 he is a holder of over 95 patents[1] in microelectronics. Until 2010, Drost was Distinguished Engineer and Senior Director of Advanced Hardware at Sun Microsystems,[2] helping to pioneer wireless connections between computer chips[3] {{broken link|date=January 2019}}called proximity communication.[4] Since 2010, Drost has had various roles, including CEO, COO, and CFO, at Pluribus Networks, Inc.,{{citation needed|date=February 2014}} a Palo Alto based startup that he co-founded with Sunay Tripathi and Chih-Kong Ken Yang. Distinctions- Awarded Best Paper at Supercomputing 2008, the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis.
