Sue Petersen

I'm an anthropologist by training, a programmer by avocation, and a manager by necessity. My husband and I have owned and operated a small plumbing repair shop since 1979. I started programming in 1985, when I bought my first PC for the business. The first thing I discovered was that computers weren't quite as obscure as I'd thought they were. The second thing was that nobody in town wanted to create a 'simple' database for the business. So... I did it myself. I'm currently setting up a new network for the office, and writing/deploying a RAILS app as the latest version of our office brains.
