ABOUT ME
Expert software developer
Expert software developer

I've been in programming since Python was the "new" language in a Perl world. I've developed image editing software and network apps, working for companies large and small, from tiny startups to European Union research projects.

I love Python, and I also love learning new languages and the ideas they bring. I do lots of work in Ruby, Rails, Haskell, and Docker.

I live in Boulder with my partner and two dogs, longboarding and snowboarding when I'm not programming.

I cannot give legal advice via codementor, but I can answer general questions about licensing, copyright, trademarks, and other intellectual property.

I use Docker in development for most of my projects, and all of my client work. I can set up a dev environment with just one line and be productive within minutes. I've got a couple of popular repos with sample configurations: https://github.com/dogweather/rails-docker-compose https://github.com/dogweather/phoenix-docker-compose

I work part-time for my profitable Startup, steadily increasing income by building front-end features with JQuery/Javascript, and backend services with a number of technologies.

My apps reliably serve 500,000 webpages with 1.2M pageviews per month — allowing me plenty of extra time to help other companies move up to the next level.

Thank you for your consideration!
