Grant Kruger's User Info

I started my career back in South Africa, after emerging battered and bruised from an institution imaginatively named, Computer Skills. I did well amidst the intense rat-race pace of Johannesburg, but I don't miss it. Portland is a healthier blend of social and career. I've been a software developer for over twenty years, working on projects of all sizes, including giant projects costing tens of millions. I used to work in proprietary software, mostly for larger companies, and did all of my volunteer work on the side (Earthlife Africa, literary groups, animal rescue and more). These days I work mostly with open source software and am enjoying my first "actual" (as in paid) nonprofit job.
