Bio
I am a web developer based out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I do most of my work in in Ruby on Rails all things Ruby. I received my bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the University of Manitoba in 2005 and have been employed as a programmer since 2003.
Currently, I am employed as a full time web developer at Western Life. I write Ruby applications that run the business. On the side I still do freelancing and other web development projects.
I am a firm believer in open source, open standards, and collaboration. This is reflected in the languages and tools that I choose, and the source code I share. Most of my programming is done in Ruby, but I dabble in Python and PHP. I also began my career as a Java programmer. I use git to manage and share my source code. My operating system of choice is Ubuntu Linux. Mind you, I'm also a fan of OSX despite some of Apple's less than honourable business practices.
Programming is my work and one of my hobbies. It's what I do and honestly I love it.
When I'm not hacking out code I am also a potter and do wheel thrown functional ceramics, but that is for another site.
I am also a friendly and approachable person. Please feel free to email me at .
