I am a software developer (by night) and a development finance professional (by day). I was a university faculty member, so I believe that everyone has potential and deserves to be treated with respect. So you won't see any snark from me. I will always try to help.
I get a lot of pleasure working on programming projects that result in a rolled out product on any platform. My products include Word tag cloud for Google Docs with almost 2 million users (and many other add-ons) and an app for Alexa (New York Times Movies). My current interest is in Machine Learning. I mostly work in Javascript and Python. Most of my coding work takes place on weekends, evenings and holidays since I currently have a full time job.
