My favorite work is with startups, I enjoy taking lead on projects that demand a diverse set of skills, I love to learn and experiment in new technologies.
I am a rather outspoken critic of using frameworks or libraries for the sake of using Great New Thing X - especially when it comes to Drupal or jQuery. I prefer my coffee black (http://jsfiddle.net/Zd4EW/)
My language specialties are PHP and javascript, though I dabble in several other languages as needed. I first became interested in computer science at the age of 11, Mother's 286 with DOS was my introduction to the art (much to her dismay); much of my early learning came about by breaking her computer and trying frantically to fix it before she noticed.20 years later and I still can't get enough - and my Mom still makes me fix her computer.
