About me

Location Illinois, United States
Introduction I was born in Russia. There I served in the Soviet Army, afterwards, eventually relocating to sunny Israel. While there, I attained my associate in Computer Science. I learned to develop in several languages, including, but not limited to: Assembler/C/C++/VB/Java/HTML as well as DB design. Chasing the market, and after nine fulfilling years in Israel, we landed in Chicago. Along the way, I picked up some more technologies and interesting things, for instance, Crystal Reports, ASP, etc.The past few years I found myself enjoying testing software by QTP, QF-Test and Python. I also start to enjoy Android development ... I have a two sons and a beautiful wife which provide me love, support, and are always behind me along the way. I'm a not huge football fan at all, as a matter of fact I prefer the likes of V. Klitschko or M. Phelps. I like programming so much, that I try to automate as much as possible to help eliminate some of the daily mundane tasks. I hope many of you too will find my software useful and easy to use.
