Albert may be a computer geek but he is anti-social media :)
Albert Dewey moved to Page County, Virginia in 1990 and is the single dad of daughter Haley who graduated from Luray High School in the spring of 2013. Haley was the first student in Page County to ever complete her associates degree before finishing high school and also received the Governor's Scholastic Award.
In 1993 Albert purchased J&D Grocery from Jerry Petefish, renaming the business to The Hope Mills Country Store. He remodeled the store's interior, paved the parking lot, put up a new canopy and installed new gas pumps, resulting in a 500% increase in business over what the previous owner had done. Three years later he sold the store at a profit.
During the years of operating Hope Mills, Albert learned enough about computing to develop several custom accounting and management systems to assist him with running the store. Catching the "programming bug", he sold The Hope Mills Country Store and formed a small website development company called CppSolutions, later partnering with Steven Carlson to form stockNum Systems.
Albert's programming language of choice is Perl and he programmed the current AutoCorner backend system primarily in this language. He is also skilled in RegEx (Regular Expressions), JavaScript, HTML, CSS and AJAX coding and uses his combined skills in these languages to develop the advanced features currently found in AutoCorner.
Steven started his first computer business at the age of 12 and went on to write a Windows security program used by Arizona State University in their computer labs at the age of 14. His software has been reviewed in numerous computer magazines, all with favorable endorsements. He is accomplished in Perl scripting, Objective-C programming, network security, Cisco firewall configuration, server load balancing techniques, Linux server administration, among others.
