I am a computer engineer with about 30 years of experience primarily focusing on real time software development for sensor and communication systems. I am currently retooling for the remainder of my technical career. I dove in to tablet and smartphone de velopment (Android and iOS) and am getting ready to start publishing smartphone applications. ©

I`m a software engineer with a passion for programming. My professional background includes mobile device and embedded programming (Android, Blackberry, J2ME, Motorola 68k processors), as well a variety of other desktop platforms (Java, MFC C++, Netbeans, etc), with a little experience with web-programming environments thrown in for good measure (HTML, CSS, Javascript, Spring, MySql, etc). One of my hobby projects is developing PopTrayU (), an open source email notifier written in Delphi. I had been using the original PopTray for about 10 years, and decided to learn enough Delphi to fix a couple pet bugs, since no one else seemed to have the knowledge, time, and inclination to do it themselves, and there hadn`t been a new version released in over 7 years. Once I`d fixed that one bug, there was one more little thing I thought I could improve, and wouldn`t it be fun if I could make this aspect of the application a little more customizable? And then there`s that other bug...well, someday I`ll get them all fixed, maybe :) ©
