About me:

Hello.
My name is Chuck Cartledge. I am a perennial student at Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia. I strongly believe that the field of computer science continues to change,
and that everything that we learn or are taught has a half life of about 3 years. Because of this
belief, I have spent what some consider to be an inordinate amount of time going
back to the education well and replenishing my skill set.
To paraphrase the old adage "the more tools you have in your tool bag, the fewer problems look like nails."
What the near term future may hold:
My plan/schedule for completion of my PhD in Computer Science.
What the past has held:
A reasonably current resume.
A collection of pictures that needs to be updated.
