I am a full time writer, digital enthusiast, and Windows fanatic among other things. I'm a Microsoft MVP, and hold several Microsoft certifications including MCSE, MCTS, MCDST, and others. I've written 50+ books on topics ranging from Windows to Photoshop, to Phones to iPads, and even on to making your Windows PCs run better and faster. Beyond writing, I teach classes at several local community colleges and am the IT Academy Coordinator and a Professor at Brookhaven College in Farmers Branch, Texas.
When I'm not writing or teaching, I teach and take yoga, participate in various blogs, beta programs, newsgroups, and online communities. I also make a daily trek the LifeTime Fitness, where I spend an hour a day on the elliptical, bike, treadmill, or free weights.

My only gripe is it doesn't contain the print edition page numbers at an point, so in class when the instructor refers to a specific page [of the print edition] I have to figure out what page he's referring to. You get a star off for that.
