Bio:Self-taught computer programming since I was a young boy.

I studied at Rutgers University, majoring in Computer Science and Mathematics.

I've had all kinds of random jobs, from gas station attendant/assistant manager to software consultant to cook to substitute teacher.

Hablo / escribo / leo español.

I like being outdoors, camping, canoeing, field archery -- alas for time!

I married my best friend. She's not girly at all, but our daughter is decidedly girly enough for both of them. (She wants to be a princess. She's only two!)
