I'm Robert Travis Pierce.

I'm an aspiring polymath with a passion for designing, developing, learning, and building. Over my life I've been variously occupied as student, tradesman, aircraft builder and mechanic, army intelligence analyst and linguist, musician, writer, producer, editor, publisher, production manager, graphic designer, 3D animator, game designer, motion graphic & video editor, software developer, and entrepreneur.

I love Jesus—I am His disciple. I stay close to Him and do what He says. I seek His Father's Kingdom and will. I love people and care for their concerns. I keep my promises and produce satisfaction.

I strive to keep and honor the three covenants I've made in my life: to God, my wife, and my country.

I've been successfully married for thirty-nine years and have four (now adult) children, and two grandchildren.

I have had an email address and been "online" since the late eighties. I've been exposed to just about every computer and piece of software to come along since then, and delved deep into many.

I've built, managed, led, and grown with many projects, businesses, clients, and teams of varying size, complexity, and success over the years—both on-site and remotely. The result? I've developed a broad and interesting talent stack—and learned a lot of flexibility and humility along the way.

I currently live a good and peaceful life on a small farm out in the middle of rural southern Illinois with my wife and, at times, four generations of our family—along with a ridiculous quantity of dogs, cats, and chickens.

My ethic

I love others and add value. I strive to treat other human beings the way that I wish to be treated and the way God treats me. I organize my actions to make my life, and the lives of other people, better.

I keep promises. I will act sincerely and competently to fulfill any promise I have made, with no private conversations in which I justify not keeping my promise.

I produce satisfaction. I design, craft, speak, fulfill, and produce satisfaction for the people I cooperate and coordinate with. I don't just complete—I close the loop and produce satisfaction.

I hold others' concerns in care. I organize my actions and speech so that it is clear to the people that I coordinate and cooperate with that I am aware of and hold in value their human concerns.

Through all this, I demonstrate that I am trustworthy.
