Software / About Me / Resume
About:
I've been a programmer since long ago. Back in high school I learned how to program Macs and release my first shareware program. Currently I'm a software engineer for BLAW, the Bloomberg Law group at Bloomberg LLC. Previously I was a software engineer for NASA GISS working on Global Warming and other climate issues.
Programming Languages:
Everyone has their prefered programming languages, which tend to change with the times. These days I'm mostly a C++ and Java programmer.
