About Me

I love software and I’ve been working professionally as a software engineer since…. egad…. 1981.  Eeeks, it’s true.gary-leather2

However, I’ve done a bunch, and still do, and love to code.  I don’t believe for a minute you ever lose your programming ability.  At 58, I am writing some of the best code I’ve ever written, people are using it, and I’m learning new stuff every day.  So if you ever feel over-the-hill, don’t.  We live in the most amazing time where you can do remarkable things from the comfort of an easy-chair at your house.  Seize the day.

My Linked-In Page is the best place to find out about what I’ve done, and I also have a one-stop personal launch page that I keep updated.

I love a lot besides software.  I have a food blog, love scuba diving with my life-long friend and companion Grace, and love to cook mostly because it empowers me to control what I eat.  Also, meals are a wonderful project.  Planned, on-time, and on-budget every single time.
