About

I have a life long love affair with technology. Learned to program by copying code from the back of Compute! Magazine to get free games for my Tandy 1000. From the moment I first made my computer write "Michael Brown is cool!" ten times, I knew this is what I wanted to do.

I enjoy learning more about my chosen craft and sharing that knowledge as I learn with my fellow craftsmen and craftswomen.
