About

Developer in scientific fields.

  • My world is vertical market shrinkwrap. Do you know your world?
  • VB6, VB.NET, Python, JavaScript, C, Fortran, Perl, PHP...
  • Web platforms, user interfaces, graphics, data manipulation, numerical models.
  • Database stuff with Firestore/MySQL/SQL Server/Access.
  • Physics degree, little formal training in development

In my young days I used to write things like compilers and chess programs for fun - but that was last millenium :)
