I'm an ENFP-T, which stands for Extraverted Intuitive Feeling Perceiving - Turbulent, also known as "The (Turbulent) Campaigner" Which means I'm the most introverted of all extroverts, and I value creativity, energy, and enthusiasm. I'm very independent and a lifelong learner. I also value deep, meaningful relationships. My current favorite Adage is Dance Love Sing Live. I have a strong background in computer programming - I've been coding for over 30 years (since elementary school) and have created a variety of software programs and websites over the years, including but not limited to an adventure RPG video game on the TI-89 Graphing Calculator, a Mandlebrot fractal graphing app on Mac & TI-89, a Tracker/MOD Music Player for the Mac, a DNA to mRNA to tRNA to Amino Acid Chain Translator for the Mac & TI-89, a soon-to-be-released app for the App Store called Life Management, two Mac/PC games - Anointed One and Celestial Exodus, and websites like crossprayer.org and lifemanagement.site

May you both be favored with the future of your choice, may you live to see a thousand reasons to rejoice!" in the song "To Life!" and a toe-touch off the bar and lots of dancing!
