I was a software engineer and software quality engineer for 15 years at Bell Labs in Naperville, IL, but was part of the 50,000 laid-off in 2001. I have a certificate in Software Quality Engineering from the American Society for Quality.
Interests are software development processes and software quality, astronomy, and photography. I am currently working on some documentation for The Amateur Sky Survey.
