Gary LaPointe
Detroit
I’m Gary LaPointe, I grew up in Berkley, Michigan. I got into programming computers as a kid, I had my first computer job at a local computer store selling computers and teaching classes when I was 15 and a few different computer programming jobs not long after that. After high school I went to Oakland Community College and then on to Michigan State University. I worked for the Department of Education at the State of Michigan in Lansing, Michigan and since then I’ve relocated back to the Detroit area and worked for several school districts in Educational Technology. I currently live in Dearborn, travel whenever/whereever I can and dream of moving to Costa Rica some day...
The background photo a fun self-photo of me jumping off a waterfall in Montezuma, Costa Rica. I don't even think it's the big waterfalls but I think the photo
looks kind of terrifying!
