introduction

I have extensive and diverse computer programming experience. Often I am asked to solve difficult or possibly impossible problems where programming is much less difficult than inventing-developing solutions. Because I have extensive computer, electronics, mechanical and optical design & implementation experience too, I can also solve difficult problems that require complex and creative integration of many technologies.

programming types
