About The Author : Meet this guy and checkout what his interests are

I've been involved in quite a few things that I consider to be fascinating and, in some cases, "out there". Perhaps the one thing that I love and hate the most is not knowing something...a mystery, if you will.

This site was put together to make available those things that I discover, complete with learning tools where possible. So, please explore...maybe I've dug deep enough into a subject and pulled out at least one thing that will make your time here worthwhile.

Since I'm supposed to be talking about myself here, so that you can get a better sense of who I am, I'll stop with the site hype and get started.

If you would like to contact me, please feel free to send an email.

My Philosophy: Nothing is impossible; just keep it simple.

Speaking of nothing being impossible, feel free to download this motivational poster.

Graduation

Academia:
Currently I've earned the Master of Science in Technology (Summa cum Laude), two degrees in software engineering and have run the gamut of IT/IS certifications such as the MCSA, MCSE, MCDBA, CCNA, CIW and even solution provider for IP transaction services such as Authorize.Net and PayPal.

I've been heavily involved with software for many years now. During that time I've gone from developing 3D game engines using Borland C++ and inline assembler language, written a few books to academic articles (object usability metrics, smart websites, search roaming and so forth). I enjoy creating new software applications and have created enterprise level application suites from content management systems to web-driven, thin client ecommerce systems that have taken years, literally, to develop and eliminate the need for cumbersome desktop driven applications such as Frontpage and Dreamweaver. As far as "web" languages are concerned, I'm extensively versed in Perl/CGI, ASP, ASP.Net, PHP, Javascript, XML, SOAP -- and the different flavors that all the hype has been around Ajax (not the cleaning compound). I've even gone as far as compiling an innovative library of code known as "THE DEVELOPER'S NOTES".

I also have the habit of teaching programming once and a while where my students, in their introductory course, go as far as creating a server-driven bot (at the low-level programming level so my students KNOW what is going on versus using a pre-made drag-and-drop library) that will go out and examine things on the internet.

Physical Stuff:
I like working out at gyms and hiking frequently, that is, as time permits. I also enjoy reading and watching movies, movies, movies, movies, movies, movies and movies.

Ideas, Ideas, Ideas:

I constantly get ideas for different subjects from the RVVIT chip (video imaging chip), radar pictography, helicopter heat grid radiation, to cryptography and much more than what I will cover here. The thick book (picture to the left) is just what ideas I came up with in Junior High School; I estimate that particular book has about 800 pages to it and I will cover just a few of the things that are included in it below.

Radar System - built this in Junior High School; I thought it was cool when a few Naval officers asked me questions about it at the State Fair.

Miscellaneous - done in Junior High School

Optimizations

5 Directional Radar Guidance System - done in Junior High School

White House - graduating from High School

Vice President

I can't help but wonder if, with all of the things that I had submitted to various places, knew they were dealing with someone in Junior High? Looking back now, it's kind of funny to think of it. :)

In The Beginning:

This was me in little league.

That bat sure weighed a lot then.

Desire to achieve balance is rarely tuned to the domain it is realized within, thereby recasting it into atypical substance.
