Summary
With over 35 years of Software Development, I've worked with many technologies. Recently I worked on moving a product into a Cloud environment that seamlessly works on AWS, GCP, and Azure. A personal project of mine is a GUI front-end to the GNU gdb debugger called Seergdb.I believe it show cases a lot of my qualities in software development.
