About

Professional experience revolves around full-stack web development - jack of all trades, of sorts. Everything from working on shell scripts, Unix/Linux command lines, databases, Java application servers, and HTML/CSS/AJAX front-end development. Another aspect of my experience involves a high level of direct customer/client interaction, and working simultaneously with multiple clients on multiple projects in order to meet customer-specific requirements, deadlines, and budgets. Specialties: Relational databases, Java, web applications, full end-to-end design and development
