Background

I was born and raised in Hannibal, MO, which was a fun, if not somewhat boring place to grow up. There was lots of trouble to be had there, but I found my way, graduated Hannibal High School in 1999 and went on to Quincy University to get my Bachlor Degree in Computer Science. From that point I worked for a local web firm and did some freelancing for several different clients, then I landed in Columbia, MO. From that point on is happening right now.

Interests

I enjoy programming in my free time, and spend a considerable amount of time reading pattern literature and other books on programming and agile development theory (currently finishing up Practices of an Agile Developer). I also play a few sports with co-workers in my free time and enjoy checking out the many restaurants in the Columbia area … especially the Sushi bars. :)
