For anyone visiting in search of website design, hosting services or technical support, I have made a decision to leave work at work and discontinue all freelance activity. Life is too short to spend my free time working :o)

Hobbies

Between my obsession with disc golf, home automation and n-scale model railroading... I'm hoping to put some interesting things here soon! In the meantime, I've provided a few links...

Mile High Disc Golf Club
The largest disc golf club in the country, of which I am a proud member.
Indigo
This is the software I use as the brain behind my home automation network.
Kato N-Scale Model Trains
I've just started getting into model railroading, but I've really fallen for these teeny trains.

Nerdery

What can I say, I'm a geek and proud of it! I never pass up the opportunity to yap about the latest episode of Doctor Who or show off my ridiculous Star Wars costumes... Going to try to figure out a good way to 'share' my findings and adventures in this space. More to come!
