Eric Stern’s Summary
I am a web programmer who creates custom web sites and applications tailored to suit the exact needs of the client. I work closely with my clients to ensure that their expectations are met and that they can be successful with the applications I produce. I have worked as a systems analyst and am able to work with non-technical customers to understand their personal and/or business needs from a technical aspect. This has ranged from simple blog setup to custom inventory tracking tools.
Eric Stern’s Specialties:
Creation from scratch of dynamic websites custom-tailored to clients' needs. I focus on technologies in the LAMP stack, but am also familiar with Windows/.NET-based development. Specifics include: Object-oriented PHP, MySQL, valid XHTML, CSS, Javascript and AJAX, XML/XSLT, and cross-site integration through APIs and Web Services.

Owner
Eric Stern Development and Photography
(Information Technology and Services industry)
June 2007 — Present (2 years 6 months)
My freelancing business. I develop custom web applications, implement designs and create various scripts to accomplish the task at hand, whatever it may be. I've worked on things ranging from small code snippets taking an hour or two to developing a social networking website, and am currently developing a content management system to power some future websites I'll be running.
I also do photography work - events to products, and whatever else catches my fancy. It's a smaller focus than the programming right now.
