I have worked in the industry since 1972 starting as a JCL Clerk. Over the years I've been a systems programmer and now a developer all while contributing to the mainframe open-source ecosystem via the https://cbttape.org/ and https://github.com/lbdyck sites. I selected the job title of Software Artist as that is what all developers are - our brush is the keyboard/mouse and our paint are the instructions and languages that we use.
