Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Brad Broerman, and I work as a consultant for Fusion Alliance in Cincinnati, Ohio as a software engineer. I have a BS in Computer Engineering
from Wright State University , in Dayton, and I am a member of
Triangle Fraternity , a social fraternity composed entirely of engineers, architects, and scientists. I am divorced, and have three boys, who live with me:
a 14 year old son, a 12 year old son, and a 10 year old son. Here's an old family picture if you're interested...
Anyway, I live in somewhat new house, in Eastgate (a suburb of Cincinnati, sort of) which I'm finally decorating, fixing problems left by the builders, and paying for the lazyness of myself and my ex in not taking care of the place...
Here's a set of photo's detailing the construction... I started the photos a little late, as I used the proceeds from selling my old house to get the digital camera
I used for most of these pictures! Oh, I'm also a veteran. I spent four years in the U.S. Navy, stationed in Norfolk, Virginia aboard the USS Saginaw (LST-1188) . Funny,
Most of the people I knew then would never have guessed this, but I really miss those times!
Currently, my hobbies include taking care of my kids, trying to take care of the house, hiking and camping with the Boy Scouts, going on day trips, or just lounging around watching a good movie. The whole family is interested in hiking and camping, and we are all involved in Scouting (Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts). This gives
us many opportunities for camping! I am also into hobbies like building web pages in my copious spare time... if you get a chance, check out
USS Saginaw Home Page ,
Powers and Son Construction ,
US Grant District, BSA (Scouts) ,
or
Ralenda's Homemade Stained Glass . The last site sells real hand-made stained glass windows, if you're so inclined... There will be a couple additional sites listed soon, as I am working on some really nice AJAX and DHTML sites.
I also have my own small consulting company Nearly Perfect Software . I've used that company name for all of my shareware, open source libraries, and consulting work since the mid-80's and finally decided to set up a website for it. Mainly due to a software library that I've developed and actually have a Patent in the works. This could be big, according to many of my friends in the business... Check it out!
Oh, for those wondering what to get me for special occations (hint to the family), here's a textbook wish list, courtesty of Amazon.com.
