Who am I?
Some of you are perhaps curious about who I am, what I'm doing and where... And also why I think that I can speak here about these different subjects... I'll try to answer these questions here...
| {AmazonLinks} |
Born in 1962 in Orléans,
France, previously leaving in Lacombe,
Louisiana and now in St François, Guadeloupe... Between the two?
Most of the time in or near Nice,
France.
During my whole life, I had hobbies that I pushed a little further away than most...
Reading was probably the first of them, then Volleyball that I discovered during a summer vacation when I was 12...
Then came photography (I started seriously when I was 16, with an Asahi Pentax MX)...
In the midst of Biology/Geology studies at the University of Nice, I tumbled on a computer course that gave quite a shock to me... At the time, computers were rare and expensive and it was my first contact with one of them... It was enough to change my calling and I went straight from there to the University Technology Institute (IUT de Nice), in the software section...
After that, a few years as software manager in a local company (GMIG), then creating my own company (Axlinfo) with two friends... First working in Bal/Abal under the French OS Prologue, we negotiated the Windows revolution by switching to WinDev.
This company was still there when, during a WinDev conference in Paris, I was contacted to come work for Selltis, in Louisiana... I became development manager for this company and worked there since Katrina decided otherwise... I'm now back to the international consulting scene and I'm also developing a whole line of software sold on the web. For more detailed information, you can consult my professional site.
Now what about cooking? I'm afraid there is no clear starting point for this one... lets just say here that I don't remember anybody complaining about my cooking lately :-)
Woodworking? I always liked the smell of wood... I started a little to work on it when I was in France, but the lack of a proper place to work limited my tentative... When we arrived in the US, the size of the houses allowed me to transform part of the garage in a first workshop, and finally when we bought a house in Lacombe, we chose one with a huge garage that doesn't see a lot of car inside usually...
You now know more about me... You will find more complete information on why and how in each section, as I will try to convene my passion for all this to you...
But why in English? I'm French after all... Well, several reasons:
- There are certainly more people out there on the web able to read me if my pages are in English
- I already had web sites in French before, so a change seems like a good idea...
- I live in an English speaking country
- Some of the pages will be a valuable resource (I hope) to the English speaking community (WinDev, by example, being a French development tool, is talked about in a lot of French speaking web sites, but way less English ones)
- And finally, because I can :-)
