My father was always on the bleeding edge of technology. One day he brought home a Zenith IBM clone XT personal computer. That was the beginning of my fascination with computers and technology. This was about the time Windows first came out and I was curious about this new graphical user interface so I proceeded to figure out how to get Windows running on my father’s new PC. Not an easy task back then, but I did it.As a teenager I found myself working at a motorcycle shop as a parts manager. The owners of that store purchased a point of sale system that ran on a large Data General mainframe the size of a refrigerator. This is where I got my first stab at programming. That evolved into a fascination with systems and how to automate them.Fast forward to today where I now offer over 25+ years of experience developing software and applications that help automate systems for businesses to become more productive and profitable. I love designing products and transforming concepts into intuitive, easy to use applications that make business and life just a little bit easier. The creative experience drives me and I see programming as a creative tool to achieve business objectives. I take extreme pride in my work and consider programming as much an art as a science.
