I am an engineer living in Seattle. I have been programming for about 15 years. I started out with video game hacking with the Code Alliance. Moved on to embedded systems development in an R&D group at GM. Did way too much graphics (3D) programming. Then did a lot of network programming for large data centers. Was forced to get my Master's in Electrical Engineering. Got into compiler and interpreter development. Spent some time coding at Microsoft. Moved on a year later to start my own company creating control systems and web apps. I love programming and have spent way too much time learning too many languages, frameworks, APIs, paradigms, and operating systems.
