My fields of expertise include aviation, bibliographies, cooking, engineering, history, library and information technology, mathematics, military and defense, music, and physics.

I have 30 years of experience in software development in the military aviation field, involving military standard documentation. I am a qualified Library Technician, and I also have experience as a technical writer, documenting Canadian aircraft operator processes.
