ABOUT ME
Results-oriented software problem solver
Results-oriented software problem solver

I love solving problems. My favorite thing is making somebody's life easier, and there's no such thing as something I'm not willing to tackle (hence the unfortunate WinForms experience). I believe success can only be judged by the end result.

Pretty much every project I've worked on has had some element of AWS. I've done everything from building basic websites on single servers, to large, autoscaling setups connected to a physical datacenter via VPN. I've also leveraged a number of their managed services including SNS, SES, SQS, ElasticTranscoder etc.
