I wrote software from 1975-1994, then retired. All in the Bay Area, mostly for the largest companies in their international or national industries. Walked to work or had a very short commute for most of it. Looking back, I was quite lucky.

Been in operations management for about 20 years across liquor stores, consumer electronics, and now for a medical device company. I currently run a couple big teams: (1) team of registered nurses who manage patients with chronic diseases remotely using our home grown software and hardware platforms, and then a team that does manufacturing, distribution, and supply chain work.

Non-work, my roles are a husband of 11 years to the wife, and father of two boys who are 9 and 7 years old.

M3LISSA should change their career to OSINT analyst with how much info everyone is willing to give out.

Or did, before they found out they could get out very early. (Highly recommended, BTW. When possible, of course.

And my what a fun industry it was. From drafting to management and everything in between. Digging around in silver mines, climbing in the retractable roofs of sports stadiums, developing some creative designs, traveling to other countries...It's no wonder you're still in the game 45 years later.

I poked my head in a few weeks back while I was in town. Grabbed a drink with Greg!
