About

RogerI'm a software designer and developer. I started my career at InstallShield, where I was involved in designing and building one of the first development tools for Windows Installer.

My interests and passion lie with user experience and interaction design. I like to think about software architecture and graphic arts, though I'm not an expert in either.

The first program I ever wrote was in GW-BASIC. Once I got to college and learned that you could use Visual Basic 3.0 to write a Windows program, I never looked back. After toiling in the COM world with ATL for a while, I fell in love with programming all over again when C# was introduced.

But enough about the geek credentials... The really important thing about me is that I've got the greatest wife and I'm dad to the cutest girls.

Why Mooville?

I grew up on a dairy farm that went by the name of Mooville. When I created my first personal home page, I designed a section called "Virtual Dairy Farm" that I used to experiment with new web technologies. Later I registered mooville.com as an homage to the farm, and I hosted Virtual Dairy Farm there for a while.

After growing tired of maintaining multiple sites, I wanted to consolidate my web presence, and I choose mooville.com as my domain.
