I'm a software developer by trade, a zoo volunteer by choice. I have a dog who is very spoiled, but looks so beautiful that he gets away with it. I ring handbells in the style of Change Ringing, though I can also read music when I need to.

I'm honestly surprised by the number of people who are following me here. I'm not that interesting, to be honest. For those who do (and who don't know me personally) - what made you do it?
