Group Interactive Technical Director at OLSON
Greater Minneapolis-St. Paul Area
I'm an interactive creative developer and application architect, with over 18 years of web/interactive development experience, and have been developing with interactive tools since the early 90's (and programming for over 23 – I’ve been coding since I was 8)
I'm equally at home working on "back end" projects such as database optimization, data modeling, and warehousing/reporting as I am working on "front end" GUI programming for the web, desktop (.NET or Java), or mobile. I'm particularly interested in SOA, mobile technology, architecture, art, and design.
I have expert level experience with the following technologies: Java, ColdFusion, C# / .NET, PHP, J2ME, XHTML, CSS, SQL Server 2000, MySQL, Flash, Flex, ActionScript, Web Services, SOA, JavaScript, AJAX, XML, XSLT, Hadoop
I've also got experience with iPhone development, Amazon SimpleDB, EC2, S3, and Apache Ivy.
