I've always been interested in designing, inventing, and creating things. That’s one of the reasons I started programming computers. I liked art and drawing but thought trying to make a living as an artist would be too risky while supporting a growing family. Instead, I started my career as a drafter working for engineering companies and enjoyed the creativity of working with engineers. Eventually I got to bring my interests together by writing programs for Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CAD) systems. My CAD niche market lasted over twenty years until clients began going out of business due to market changes and other potential clients turned toward outsourcing overseas.
