I grew up in the Seattle area and went to college in Boston, MA. After college I moved back to Seattle and started working as a software engineer. Ten years later, I am married, have a son, and work both as a Software Architect and as CFO of a Seattle-based consulting company called Übermind, Inc. Over the past two years I have been teaching myself the Ruby programming language and use it to build Rails applications for fun! I'm addicted to this cool new technology and I'm a member here because I wanted to see a Rails app, Zoodango, in action.
