About John

Self-Portrait

I grew up in Exton PA and went to High School at Henderson H.S. I graduated from Penn State in 1984 with an Electrical Engineering degree and have been working as a Software Engineer for over 35 years.

I write and record music, play guitar and mandolin, and enjoy drawing with Pencil and Pen and Ink and have been doing Calligraphy since the 9th Grade.

For Charity, I have always been an advocate for the homeless, since I was homeless at one point, and I realize how close so many people can be to a downward spiral that can lead to homelessness.

However, taking care of my mother in her final years has given me a great appreciation for Caregivers, and the difficulties they face, as well as a calling to comfort people preparing for their “Last Tomorrow”.

Mom always gave to the Purple Heart Foundation since her father, my grandfather, received the Purple Heart from injuries sustained in World War II in North Africa. I’ll add that to my list of Charities too.

With this web site I will try to help however I can.
