About Me
Software Engineer
I have been working as a Software Engineer for many years - my first "tech" job was in Connecticut using dBase II for CP/M on a Kaypro. Kaypro was headquartered in Solana Beach, CA and I wanted to go work for them! I did make it to the Solana Beach area the following year (not working for Kaypro) and have been here for 40 years now.
With the recent arrival of AI, I've used Claude AI as my development team to refine my personal web sites over the past few months and am very impressed with the current capabilities as a development tool.
Photographer
There may be more of a future in photography than software engineering now! I dabble in photography and you can see some of my latest projects at CalPics.art. I never found the time to pursue photography as much as I wanted to while working full-time, but now that I'm semi-retired, I'm giving it more attention and will share the results on that site. I also took the background image you see on this site.
As a photographer, I will also give credit to Claude for currently NOT creating artificial images, unliike their AI competitors, though it is probably inevitable.
