About Richard

For my job, I am a web application developer. Since most of my work is with developing web-based applications, I added "application" since that more clearly indicates what I do. The majority of my current work is in Ruby on Rails and Java.

Other than my side programming projects, I enjoy spending time with my wife, kids and dog. They really bring a sense of happiness and fulfillment to my day to day dealings.

In my other free time (when I am not with my family or on the computer), I enjoy building things (i.e. shelves, storage units, workbench, etc). I am not very good at this point, but I am getting better. It gives me a chance express myself in other ways.

Enjoy the blog!
