I'm a developer with about 10 years experience. I started out using Perl scripts in computational biology, and have long since left the research world behind. My skills include OO Perl, MySQL, PHP, JavaScript, Lucene/Solr, Objective-C, and of course my current favorite: the powerful Django, Python, Postgres, jQuery combination. I have even been known to do some web design (keep it minimalist!).
I've worked on projects spanning the spectrum, from startups that never got beyond 10 users and a virtual server to those requiring several dedicated servers, an index of millions of documents, and plenty of moving parts to keep everyone happy. I'm pretty dogged in solving any problem that comes my way during a project, and really enjoy the process of learning new skills.
