Future Ware

I am honored to get to preview and test cutting edge solutions for Microsoft with regard to eye gaze technology enhancements. It makes sense considering we live in the land of Microsoft.

I feel like I'm making a difference for the good of all people. Isn't that what all of us want? To make a positive difference. To matter.

Grandma held Dawn and Grandpa held me. I held Grandpa's chin. Walking through the back of the flour-caked kitchen, I saw scrumptious pastries and colorful toys stuck in the cupcakes with my hungry kids eyes. We lived in a two-story apartment building next door to a large farmer's field.  That field was my
