Ralfe Poisson’s Summary

I have over a decade of programming experience working with a wide range of technologies. I am considered an expert in open source web development, often being asked to give guest lectures at local universities. I have considerable experience in project management, the SDLC and information security. I was a founding member of a Durban-based Programmer's Forum as well as the Durban Hackers' Space. I am young, a lot of enthusiasm for what I do, and have a special interest in theoretical physics, psychology and classical music.
