In the beginning…

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

I've been reading technical blogs of all sorts for many years. I've finally tired of being just a lurker (join Code Project for a definition) and I'm going to try to contribute to the blogging community. My technical interests include:

  • Software Development techniques and practices
  • Microsoft technologies (.NET, WCF, WPF, etc.)
  • Embedded Real-time systems (WinCE and Linux, DSPs)
  • Medical Device development
  • EMR (Electronic Medical Records)

I've been a private software consultant in the past and have maintained the RDN Consulting domain. I don't expect to put content back up any time soon, but since the hosting is paid for for a couple more years this turns out to be a great place to host a blog (WordPress was a snap to install).

My current day job is a Research and Development Staff Engineer at CardioDynamics International. They design, manufacture, and sell Impedance Cardiography (ICG) devices. The technology behind ICG is called thoracic electrical bioimpedance (TEB) and is very cool.  My primary responsibility is software design and development for both medical devices and EMR integration solutions. I work with a great group of people.

That's all for now. We'll see how it goes...
