About

I'm a software developer with a long career. I have a good-sized family: one wife and three sons, one autistic. We live just outside of Boston.

My interests, generally reflected in my blog, include: software engineering, parenting, math (especially visual aspects, such as geometry), politics, geeky recreations, language, and so on.

If you like what I do, you can sponsor me on GitHub.
