I live in Columbus, Ohio and am a dad of 2 kids, 2 dogs and a cat. I’ve been making stuff on computers since the early 2000s, beginning with the Atari 400 (way after their prime), which led to writing C on Palm Pilots and finally coding on Mac. These days I work in management, but still enjoy coding websites and apps by hand in my (limited) free time. I’m also an avid cyclists, hiker and enjoyer of retro video games. I run a small consulting company called Darn Fine Software and the Columbus Vintage Computing Club.
