Autorenporträt
Dave Cohen graduated from Georgia Tech in 1984 with a degree in Computer Science. From college to the present, he's worked for Fortune 500 companies to startups, on technologies from mainframes to PCs to smartphones, paper tape to text editors to IDEs, and COBOL to C++ to PHP. He has outlasted a number of his prior employers, who frankly should have fired him. In addition to software development, he's written for technical and business publications such as Microsoft Systems Journal and Triangle Business Journal, and authored the technical thriller Executable File (available at Amazon.com) in 2018. He currently resides in Chapel Hill, NC, with his wife, two sons who were homeschooled through elementary grades, a dog, and two cats.
