Self-taught mid-career transferee back into computer programming, I have worked for 25 years in various positions creating "edutainment" software, personal productivity software, and, most recently, I have contributed in a variety of ways to the quality of the Westlaw online product. My programming experience includes ATARI BASIC, 6502 assembler, x86 assembler, MS-DOS, Windows application development, Macintosh OS application development, Perl, Java and VBScript. My recent work involves data mining with Java applications in support of data presentation via Excel, sometimes involving SQL or Oracle database storage and retrieval.
