David Lyon’s Summary

My professional experience lies mostly in the knowledge and skills gained both from personal study of computer science and experiences gained working at State Farm Insurance in the Systems department. I have worked to create basic websites for the corporate intranet, and am currently working on creating an internal web application using J2EE, Struts and Tiles.

My ultimate goal is to work on creating my own business, or helping a small business succeed.
