I'm passionate about building systems to solve problems, and making people's lives better. I've been involved in every aspect from planning and mapping out the development schedule of systems to configuring and deploying the hardware and networks to run it all. My specialty and personal preference is being involved hands-on in developing systems to scale and dealing with massive volume and load. Specialties: Team management, JavaScript and PHP development, MySQL development/management, WordPress development/customization, complex web systems, blogging and social-media related technology and API work, developer advocacy, community management.
