Joined Cheetah Software Systems Inc as their CTO with primary focus on UAV software solution integration. After years of working solo on UAVs, it was time to make it my professsion.

Image was taken from my home built wooden multicopter, I am standing in the driveway. Flying a flight controller board I designed and coded.

In my free time I am mad about cycling, designing and flying unmanned aircraft.

Heavily into both rotary wings (multicopters) and fixed wings (aircraft), control systems and telemetry systems. Writing code for base stations, radio telemetry, guidance system, imaging systems and processing.

Flight computers are coded in Arduino, base station is a Win GUI, but am working on an Android version.

Coded for ESRI for the past 9 years, writing code for C++, C++/CLI, C#, Java and Javascript. I worked on ArcMap, ArcGIS Explorer, ArcGIS Mobile.

My last 2 years at ESRI I worked with start ups after jumping out of core dev work. Helping them understand ESRI technology, write code for them to get what they need working in as short amount of time as possible.

Am the lead developer at Black Rabbit Labs, where we specialize in ICOM digital and analog radios. Software to hardware integration for tracking, signal monitoring, remote control.
