Biography:

I've designed and authored hardware/software solutions starting with a blank page and ending with well documented systems/packages that have supported teams of dozens to hundreds for decades. Most recently: Rock Stable Systems, details at https://rockstablesystems.com. Those with technical abilities will recognize the breadth of the skills required to create the website and the product.

Historically, among the more notable: a heavy industrial/military realtime device driver-to-UI engineering ecosystem sold as a product; to system's software adding 7 years to the life and increasing the production rates of a global manufacturer's personal care product production line, to a custom ERP/CRM system for the wholesale baking industry that generated line-by-line income statement variance reports between management expectation vs actuarial results.

I served on corporate boards, including a start-up, and provided due-diligence investment banking consulting, while remaining a capable embedded/firmware as well as 'full stack' designer/engineer. My current language favorites, roughly in order are: python, sql, c, php, c++, assembly, machine control, vision systems, Linux variants, Windows device drivers, highly available systems (database/pbx/www/server/router redundancy). On the side I've been a fill-in prof of digital forensics, and had a minor result in prime-number related 'pure math' published.
