Michael Caughey’s Summary

I have worked my way from developer to Sr Enterprise Application Architect, have a back ground in Computer Science. I spend a lot of time working with new technologies and have a fasination with micro computing, be it mobile applications, robotic or other small devices like the GumStix, which I'm using to build a UAV. When it comes to large enterprise applications I really enjoy he architecture/design aspect of the project which I have been doing for more than 10 years.
