During they day, I spend my days at Network Appliance, Inc – the world’s premier storage company. At night, I’m either spending time with my significant other (Bessie), or working on a very large amount of open source / freelance projects.

I’m always looking for new and exciting projects to work on to expand my skill set. If you need a developer for a project, let me know.

Some History

• I went to George Mason University for a little while, but walked away as soon as I could.
• Years ago, my main focus was Graphic Design and Photography, rather than Web Development.
• I’ve avidly played the drums for 10 years. I own a beautiful Premier Artists Maple kit.
• I know Windows better than you could imagine. And I lose hours of sleep every night because of it.
• Growing up, my personal computers were always about 15 years behind current technology. This has helped me tremendously; I have 25+ years of experience across generations of computing before by time.
• My Father is currently persuing a PhD in Computational Science from GMU. I owe all of my *nix exposure (at the age of 9) to him. Thanks, dad :)
• I was once a full time SharePoint Developer. Don’t remind me.

Favorite Things

• OS X & My MacBook Pro (2010 – 15″ Matte Screen@ 1920×1080, 2.66GHz Core i7, 8GB DDR3, 250 GB SSD, 500 GB HDD)
• B & W P5 Headphone
• Moleskine Notebooks (Large Journals, Squared)
• TextMate
• iPad + Reeder
• dTerm + Zsh
• Git

Ridiculous Opinions

• Tabs are better than spaces in code
• All of the major problems in the world today are a direct result of the development of the Java Programming Language.
• Python is the answer to all of these problems.
• Use OS X.
