Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been in the computer industry for decades, starting in the 1970s by building my own computer and robotics. That led to a career of mating software and hardware through several technology startups. Being deeply in this industry from the beginning had granted me an overall view of how everything works together that is rare today. My goal is to pass this deep basic understanding to the next generation.
