Computers are my life. Since receiving a my-first-QBasic book from my computer teacher in first grade, I've been fascinated by everything programming - the fast-growing capabilities of the web, the immense power of distributed databases, cross-process synchronization in parallel programming, low-level memory management, and high-level programming techniques and methods of approaching problems, to give a few examples.

I am constantly picking up new languages and frameworks to satisfy my curiosity - the list on this page is a testament to that! - and recently, that tendency has extended to human languages, as well, with Japanese. So it is that as I decide to try living away from my birthplace of New York, I'm moving to Tokyo to further my interest in Japanese and in Japan.
