Bio

I worked in software design for thirty years, until I retired in 2010. Before that, there was a stint in the Marines, a job as a stock clerk for a data processing shop, and then college under the GI Bill. In the work force, I got trained in programming, moved up to tech analysis, and after night school at Johns Hopkins APL, shifted into software architecture and data warehousing. During those years, married with a growing family, I stuffed my ideas and projects into folders and file cabinets—for when I retired. Now, these years.
