About Me

Jim K
I am a 50-something U.S. expatriate, recently moving from Boise, Idaho to Singapore with my wife in association with her two-year work assignment. I am technically "retired", although I prefer for the moment to think of it as temporarily not working. I spent 27 years in the computer technology industry in various engineering and management roles and projects. I am very excited for my opportunity to live in Singapore for some time, to be able to experience new cultures, the big-city life, and explore Southeast Asia.
