About

I am a software developer by trade, with some background in electronics. I like to tinker with different things and build stuff in the garage. I have a large collection of video games, for several consoles and a pile of arcade pcbs. I also collect and repair vintage audio gear and synthesizers. I like to make music, and while I’d like to think that I’m good at it, the truth is that I still have a lot to learn. I’m also a licensed pilot and own a couple of motorcycles.

What I like to do is combine these skills to create something useful. Sometimes I’m successful, sometimes not so much. Life tends to get in the way and being a scatterbrain doesn’t help.

I created this site to document and organize my projects, and make them available to the public. It is quite possible that you may find something useful here. It will most likely revolve around the interests I listed above.
