About
I've been writing software since I was in the 6th grade. In recent years I've developed for Blue Coat Systems, what I believe is the most advanced code injection and API hooking engine for Windows ever produced. I've done similar work at other companies for Unix code injection and hooking. I love to hack! Lately my hacking has been in the Windows networking stack (kernel mode). While currently at Blue Coat Systems, I am entertaining new employment opportunities where my Windows and Unix Internals skills can be utilized to produce great products!

Electronics has been a favored hobby since I was very young. I am a tinkerer (thank you Massimo Banzi for finding the perfect word). I took an extended holiday from Electronics while I served a mission for my Church, and then while I had young children. Now I am hoping my children will enjoy the projects I build and will enjoy helping me with them.

I have four talented and extremely good looking children, over whom I am extremely protective, along with one very wonderful wife! Being a Father and Husband are true adventures worthy of any committed tinkerer or hacker!

I spend my days writing software professionally, and my evenings (usually well into the mornings) working on projects, and/or with my family.
