That’s a nickname I’ve had online since 1995, so at times I’ll answer to that name first. I’ve been a: programmer/developer, designer, project manager, business owner, but most importantly a technology lover for over 20 years and a portfolio that includes Fortune 400 companies to startups and a lot in-between over the years. But most importantly, I’m a technology lover that truly believes in the meritocracy of open source projects which lead me to my Nokia 770 and ITT/TMO so many years ago. </div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="line-height: 19.5px; margin: 0px;"><br></div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="line-height: 19.5px; margin: 0px;">If I’m elected, I will do my best to support this community that’s supported and educated me for the last 7+ years.
