Software developer with 24+ years experience in programming with 22+ years of JAVA. While I certainly don't claim to know everything, I have a reputation for finding solutions and getting the job done in a professional and ethical manner.

I am a Christian and I believe God led me to make a career change to go into full-time programming in 1999 and I have never regretted the decision.

When I'm not at work, I like to study and experiment with code, read, fix things, especially computers and cars. I suppose it's because I like working with my hands with things after working all week coding.

Coding is the most rewarding career I can think of. I never get tired of learning and doing new things in it. I am curious by nature.

I will continue to help on SO when I can. Helping people is a worthy goal in life, it transcends professions.
