He learned he had a passion for programming in high school. More recently, when he started doing a jog several times a week to relax, Gerard rediscovered a second high school passion -- running. No longer a relaxing jog, his competitiveness has led him to take part in several races a year. As a huge fan of WebAssembly, he was fortunate to have been given the opportunity to write a book on the subject: <em>WebAssembly in Action</em> (<a href="https://www.manning.com/books/webassembly-in-action" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.manning.com/books/webassembly-in-action</a>). He is passionate about his work, his hobbies and (most of all) his wife and his two young and very clever girls.</p>
