How to turn your thoughts into practical applications, how to turn the chaos within and around us into an understandable and manageable situation that we can stay on top of

This experience has evolved from a lifetime interest of imaginative thinking and poetry writing, as well as over 20 years of working within engineering and software development, and some experience at managing a business. They are all compatible – honest!
