T. Michael McCormick was schooled in the liberal arts and Educational Psychology at Bucknell University, recently retired from a long career in systems and software engineering and Information Technology management, and is currently filling his time with: beneficial and challenging projects (like this book); volunteering efforts (providing food backpacks to children facing food insecurity in Anne Arundel County, exercising my new Master Watershed Steward wings by planting trees and pollinator gardens and whacking-down invasive plants); and new and old interests – music, travel, exercise, learning Spanish and trying to get more than 50 master points in bridge with Rick.
