About Me
- Demian
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- I develop internet applications, and have been since 1995. I'm over 30, over 6 ft (that’s 1.9m for you Metric folk) tall and I'm about 170lbs. (77 kilograms). I’m married to a wonderful woman; we have a beautiful daughter and son, 2 cats, 2 dogs, and some fish. I've lived in the Midwest of the USA my whole life, born in Minneapolis, MN, raised in Chicago, IL, back to Minneapolis, 90 days in Odessa, TX (temporary insanity on that move), then Urbana, IL (about 150 miles south of Chicago) and now, I'm back where I started, Chicago (or just outside of it, to be exact).
