The Brutal Gourmet

About me

Industry Technology
Occupation Software Developer/DBA
Location Boston, MA, United States
Introduction I work for the MSPCA in Boston as a software developer and database manager. I also volunteer as a foster parent for sick or undersized cats with the MSPCA Shelters. In my off time, I read (fiction: SciFi/speculative fiction, alternative history. Non-fiction: philosophy, biology-centered science, computer-oriented books in general), play video games, write video games and play with cats -- as many as a dozen in the house at a time. I also cook both because I need to eat and because I love to cook :) I really am much gentler in the kitchen than my name might make you guess.
