About
I've been writing code for almost a decade (and I'm only 22), the first few years were spent on HTML (around the time of Netscape Composer, then eventually Dreamweaver), then I met PHP (2004) and fell in love with it. While my current job has me writing PHP on a daily basis, I dream of writing Ruby.
I'm currently the Senior Web Developer for Inovat in Elizabethtown, PA. If you were to ask me what I'm doing at any time, 99% of the time the short answer will be writing code. You see, I have a lot of ideas moving around in my head and I want to build them all, unfortunately my process is usually. Start... build... build... build... curse... build... curse... threaten project... curse... build... curse... ignore it for a while... come back... restart... and repeat.
Besides writing code I also co-manage the Central PA Flash User Group, blog, read, listen to music (pretty much every type of it), and I've been known to enjoy playing games on my 360.
* On a side note, you don't want to play multiplayer COD4: Modern Warfare against my brother and I. I've got patience and am pretty good with either sniper rifle, by the time I take my first shot though, my brother has likely come up behind you either taken you out with a knife or a round from a P90.
I'm a Vegetarian, a college graduate, and originally from the eastern shore of Maryland. Oh yeah, and I'm not a PC.
