How many coders, devs, programmmers, IT peeps, technical design folks are also musicians and/or seriously in pursuit of music lifelong? Curious to know as for more than 30 years in tech I see a lot of crossover.

WOW. I am actually leaving my career as a developer to pursue music, in addition to deeply delving back into drawing and painting. I have finally answered the call of the electric guitar, and am highly enjoying it. I'm aligned with a good number of pro musicians as well.

Seriously? How cool. And electric guitar no less? What factors do you think prompted this decision at this point in your life and career? I'm sure this is something you hear but indulge my OCD as I I must simply say it: Play Misty For Me? I apologize but I had to get it out LOL.

The passion I had for dev was just going out. I had also become weary of related work environments. The creative aspect of myself was being stifled. I decided it would be a good idea to follow my heart, and so far, I am happier. By the way, my name’s inspired by “Misty Blue” 😉

I love that you play electric guitar. I get being burnt out and I also completely relate to the work environment issue. Fortunately I can keep it selective in my old age regarding web. Which genres do you prefer? I'm very excited for you and eagerly await hearing your music!
