Gary Brown's Homepage

About Me

Greetings! Name here is Gary Brown and this is my humble Internet page. I just recently started this page as a point-of-entry for anyone -- but especially prospective employers -- wanting to learn a little more about me (personally and professionally). Please feel free to browse the site; which is mainly a small sampling of things that interest me -- work, family, aviation, astronautics, science, astronomy, computers and electronics.

I reside in the western suburb of West Chicago, Illinois -- exactly 33 miles due West of downtown Chicago -- where I live with my precious family and also work as a Business Intelligence Manager, Web Application Developer and Electronics Developer. I was originally born and raised in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida; but, in 1998, I moved the family when I decided to agressively pursue a career in computer software and web development in Chicagoland. And it has been a fun ride ever since!

I have a thirst for life, purpose and accomplishment -- striving for logic and perfection in family, hobby and work. With life being so precious (yet brief), it is my goal to perfect myself, my work, my children and, hopefully, do something beneficial for the world. This page attempts to highlight those pursuits. So browse and enjoy! If you have comments, please email me or skype me.
