Bio

I love to code, I love to code, I love to codeigniter.

I live a daily struggle with being bi-polar yet I’m still determining if this is a blessing or a curse.  Aside from the ups and downs associated with this illness the characteristics of it leave me desperate for as much knowledge as I can get. 

Over the past decade I have honed my hobby into an art form through the wonderful community of developers that exist in this ever expanding entity we have come to call the Web.  As I was growing up I had an infatuation with technology, especially the web, because the knowledge I poses was handed to me by the web.  This same knowledge would have cost me copious amounts of money had I of used traditional means to attain it. 

When my brain hurts from hours of code I tear myself away from vim and fire up my recording studio where I release my tension through musicianship and songwriting.  Music has plays a huge role in my life because without having it as an outlet I’m not sure how I would still be here today.

I am also blessed to have a beautiful son who can light up my day no matter what twist my bi-polarism throws and me.
