Earth 2 Eddie
United States
Ex-NASA, techie, coder, designer, musician, project manager, explorer, spawned from 'the South'

I've worked as a project manager, computer game programmer, inventor for a Japanese tech company, software engineer, graphic designer, usability analyst, and system administrator. Currently work in aerospace.

I'm 40 and recently discovered I have an incredibly unusual, mostly benign genetic variant of cystic fibrosis. CF usually kills people before they reach adulthood. It has Johns Hopkins, NIH scratching their heads. I was able to figure it out before the doctors did.
