About

I'm a life-long programmer with a variety of interests, including ray tracing, text processing.

I've written a murder mystery about a software engineer who discovers that solving a crime is a lot like debugging a program. Check out Blue Screen of Death at your favorite ebook retailer. A second novel, Access Violation, is in the works.
