I don’t think you want to read my whole life story, so I am not going to tell you one… not a long one at least.

Where I live … in Pennsylvania with J (my wife) and black cat (Miles).

If I wasn’t an engineer … I’ll be a gourmet cook/chef or graphic designer.

I would like to … be a cartoonist (caricaturist to be precise).

My hat’s off to … a programmer’s lateral mind, how they write and see code.

Intrigued by … Graphic Design and the Mafia.

When I retire … I’ll open a Diner!

Things (to try) to do before I am too old … write a book, see all 50 US states, skydiving, white water rafting, climb a mountain.

I am thankful for … a wonderful (and beautiful) wife and family!

One of the best things we lost as we grew older … the simplistic and worry free mind when we were kids!
