My current day job is as a saddle maker/designer for a family business. I study and apprentice at night to improve my knowledge and skills in Devops and other computer technologies, as well as to assist in development for Gmacon. Recently I have been privilege to be involved in developing a physical technology in the electrical engineering field during my non paid work hours as well. For 15 years I have been a member of the Akuma Ryu Kenpo Karate Association and I currently hold the rank of senior vice president of the association as well as 5th degree master instructor. Other jobs I have held over the years include auto mechanic, machinist, and insurance agent/salesman. Many of my hobbies blend with my work to the extent that it is difficult to draw distinctions. Ones that are clearly not in the work category include anime/manga, studying philosophy, physics, engineering, ancient history, and inventing. ©
