Born and raised in the Philippines, Jaime Espiritu moved to the U.S. after college with a B.Sc. in Architecture. After twelve years in the profession and nothing to show for it, he went back to school and trained in the computer field. In it, he developed skills that saw him through a rewarding 26-year civil service career as an IT Specialist with the Federal Government in Washington, D.C. Meanwhile, he continued to pursue a life-long desire to write and, to date, has produced a body of work in fiction listed at the end of this autobiographical novel. Jaime currently lives in a D.C. suburb in Maryland with lovely wife Nancy.
