About me

I'm a programmer with over 15 years' experience. I've done a lot of Java, but have paid my dues in C, done a lot of Ruby coding on the side, and more than dabbled in Scala. I'm currently learning how to program for the iPhone. You can read all about the jobs I've had on on LinkedIn. If you'd rather read code, I'd suggest one of the following:

• GLI - a Ruby library for creating awesome command line applications
• Shorty - a Scala web-app for URL shortening
• Gliffy - The Ruby library for interfacing with Gliffy's API

I also love talking to other geeks as well as speaking at user's groups and conferences. Here's me at ScalaDays 2010.

Last but not least, I also like writing about code and technology. See my Java Developer's Tour of Scala as well as various blog entries I've written.

When I'm not coding, I'm either cooking food or playing bass.
