My hearts home is Santa Cruz, CA where I grew up and lived in until 2005. I’m a technology enthusiast to a fault. I spend a great deal of my free time following the latest technology trends in a wide variety of areas including mobile tech, OS development, alternative energy, gaming and anything else I can get my greedy little knowledge hungry brain on. I have been described by co-workers and friends as a “swiss army knife” for my ability to solve such a wide variety of technology issues that are presented to me daily. The number of gadgets, computers, games and software apps I own would be the envy of any technology columnist. There could hardly be an instance where I am not aware of some new technology development nor could I pass up on purchasing said tech just so I can satisfy my thirst for knowledge. Maybe i will start a tech review blog…. In my spare time I experiment with programming, PC building, and home entertainment networking. I also enjoy playing the guitar and running (although not usually at the same time). When I get tired of the gadgetry I head to my garage and work on my 1965 Chevy II or my 1968 El Camino. I am also a pretty good artist, working mostly in pencil and lately trying my hand at painting with acrylics. Always looking for the next thing to grab my interest and challenge my abilities.
