Software Developer (Senior) BluePearl Software
Germany Germany
I started in the late 80´s with a VIC 20 and wrote my first computer programs. In the 1990´s I developed games for a published diskmag and also became active in the demo-scene. That was the time where I got a deep unserstanding about computers, Bits and Bytes and programemd alot of different things (Games, Compilers, Tools and Alot of other stuff - It was just pure Fun !). In that Time I was also reading alot of books. I´ve used Turbo Pascal, Assembler, C++ and finally arrived in the business and C# world. In 2001 I founded my own company "BluePearl Software" and I develop business and technical applications for small and mid-sized companies as a freelancer, both industrial and non-industrial and in a wide range of business sectors.

I am still interested in the nitty-gritty of PCs and software and how to code/design software in an elegant way. I like to face and solve problems and design good software.

I started programming by getting books on BASIC programs from the local library and entering them into QBASIC, and when I was 10 I bought a copy of Visual Basic 5 and started visual development on my 33mhz (talk about long compile times!). After a couple years I decided to learn the language that most professional programs and games were made in: C++. As soon as I learned about the power of pointers, I was addicted to programming for life Wink | ;) .

I've worked on a number of programs since then, including IGCutter, Pockulous, and Freelancer Mod Manager. I've also had the great opportunity to intern at Adobe over a summer; definitely a dream come true Smile | :) .

I'm currently a freshman/sophomore in college, trying to stay awake in boring required classes on Java...

I am 20 years old and I live in Kitchener, Ontario. I have been programming since I was 10 years old. I started with QBasic, then up to Visual Basic, and finally C++. I am an avid programmer of Windows as well. Besides that, I am also interested in automation, PLCs, and electronics. I will be attending Conestoga College in Sept. 2005 for their Mechanical Engineering: Automation and Robotics program. I hope to someday have a job where I can incorporate my skills with programming Windows with the skills I learn in that program.
