About

By day: Mild-mannered automation engineer.

By night: Super-programmer, fighting evil bugs in my accounting application to defend existing user base.

For fun: Facebook, Netflix, HBO, reminiscing how good I used to be (in my own mind) at table tennis and disc golf. Sitting in my massage chair, wishing I had a Jacuzzi instead.
