Summary: Leo is Leo A. Notenboom, the owner, the operator, and the 'Leo' in Ask Leo! Find out a little more about Leo... he's been around for a while!

Yes, this was a real question.

So just who is Leo?

"Leo" is Leo A. Notenboom. That's me. And since you ask, let me tell you a little about myself.

Leo A. Notenboom

I'm Leo A. Notenboom, the owner of Puget Sound Software, LLC and the Leo in Ask Leo!.

I've been in the personal computer and software industry for over 25 years as a software engineer and a manager of software engineers since 1979.

In 1983 I joined Microsoft and spent the next 18 years in a wide variety of groups working on a wide variety of software. I've shipped a lot of software and managed a lot of engineers. If you're running Microsoft Windows or if you've used a Microsoft development tool or Microsoft Money, or if you've ever purchased a ticket through Expedia, there's a good chance you've been touched by some of my work.

I'm one of those weird people that plays with computers because I really, really enjoy it. It's my career and my hobby. So even after leaving Microsoft I've kept it up. Lately I've been doing a lot of work implementing and maintaining websites on both Windows and Linux. I've been writing some very interesting server-side applications in perl and PHP, frequently using database technologies such as mySql, and writing all sorts of other odds and ends.

And of course answering questions here on Ask Leo!.
