Web Developer

United States

I'm a software developer from Sweden who got tired of snow and cold weather and moved to USA. I choose New York City, so I wouldn't totally miss out on snow and cold weather. I work on Wall Street with financial systems (not much else to do in this neighborhood). I primarily use Visual C++/MFC or C#/.NET as development tool.

The picture is of my wife and me in Cannes, France, drinking the most expensive Coke we ever had.
