About Me
I completed my training as a Computer Programmer in 2001 and I've been heavily involved in technology ever since.
My goal is to entertain you, make you laugh, and most importantly, help you understand all of the devices and applications that now play a prominent role in our lives.
Father to two great kids, I enjoy playing my guitar, running (depending on the year!), riding dirt bikes, or making my way through 18 holes on the golf course.
