This Mike Perry was born in Los Angeles, CA. I'm actually Mike Perry Jr., or Mike Perry III if you count my grandfather being "Michaelangelo Perry".

My Father: Michael D. Perry

My father was a research scientist from Utah with a Masters in EE from UCLA and a PhD in Cardiovascularphisiology from UA. He taught at Tuskeegee Institute and Howard University. He is responsible for many innovations including the first valve that could measure the heart and the wheels on the Lunar Rover space vehicle. If you knew my father, I'd like to hear from you. He had many interesting friends that I'm sure have many stories I would like to hear about. He passed away around 1986.

Who am I?

I currently reside in the New Orleans, Louisiana-area. I am CEO of InterCommerce Corporation, currently ranked as the 38th most successful e-commerce company in the world. My company provides advanced e-commerce and Internet technology solutions to businesses all over the globe. We have networks and locations in the United States, England and the Isle of Man. ICorp specializes in advanced Internet systems and e-commerce and handles over US$2M in online transactions a month. Our company is very selective about the clientele we handle, and as a result can boast one of the highest loyalty and success rates in the industry. We've been around as long as the Internet.

My primary computer-related field is in the area of programming and software design. Before ICorp, my company Progressive Computer Services, Inc. successfully published utility software for the IBM PC market. We sold over 100,000 compies of our flagship software EZ-Menu, garnering awards such as "Editor's Choice" In PC Magazine, "Best Product" in PC Home Journal and "Publisher's Pick" in PCM, as well as a glowing endorsement from John C. Dvorak in PC Magazine. My software has won honors and awards worldwide. I am also the principal designer and architect of the prototype online yellow pages system for Bell Atlantic, an environmental database for the United Nations and an online hotel reservation system acquired by hotels.com.

I am also a writer, having co-written "HTML & CGI Unleashed" published by SAMs/Macmillian press, and contributed to numerous other books including "The PC User's Survival Guide" (M&T).

I have too many hobbies and interests to list, and am always interested in exploring new fields. Some of my primary interests include photography, music (play multiple instruments), scuba diving, stained glass, and collecting all sorts of things.

Currently, I am single. Admittedly, I've spent a lot of time working on my career and my personal goals. I'm not your typical nerd though (even though I do own the domain nerd.com - ha ha). I am very passionate about my work and my beliefs. But I can also be very outgoing and adventurous. I've spent more energy on client projects than my own, so I'm finally taking some time to put up a personal page, which is ironic since I've been online for over a decade and I still don't appear much in the search engines... that's probably best. : )

If you want to know more about me, you're going to have to dig and/or contact me. I have a lot of content online but it's not linked or accessible. If you ask, I can accommodate you though.

Thanks for visiting!
