Hello everyone! I'm a hot air balloon pilot who worked in IT for the better part of 25 years. These days I primarily fly balloons, but I still build apps and programs for various things—mostly related to aviation and photography (I also shoot wet plate Collodion tintypes).

I've always been a big proponent of free software, so most everything I make is freely distributed. But it's not free to me—I still have to pay for hosting, servers, and app store licenses, not to mention all the time I put into building and updating everything. So donations are always appreciated.

Here are some of the apps I've made:

Sky Desk Hot Air Balloon ride ticketing

Flicker Show "coming soon" Balloon glow choreography hardware

Festival Ping "coming soon" Festival alert and messaging system
