Lotus Notes & Lotus Domino Expert, IT Consultant
Greater Philadelphia Area
My primary specialty is Lotus Notes & Lotus Domino develpment. I'm a Principal Certified Lotus Professional since 1999. I also dabble in Lotus Notes/Domino adminitration, but only as means to troubleshoot and support coding.
In the last 6 years I've been fortunate to experience the influence of some heavy duty usability focused people (from DC UPA and other places) and caught the bug of developing software in a very usability conscious way. Building usable apps is my primary focus now.
Beyond my primary specialties, I'm pretty much a software jack of all trades. For every ad-hoc job I tend to try to pick the right tool, which enabled me to learn quite a few languages from Perl (for text crunching) to Forth (to quench my twisted brain) to PHP (for practical web stuff) to Smalltalk (to learn OOP) you name it. Learning new languages is fun.
Lotus Notes, Lotus Domino, Very strong LotusScript, @formula, JavaScript (Ajax), DHTML, XML/XSLT. ODBC, LC, JDBC.

At this point I'm unable to go into specifics, but suffice it to say it is COOL ;)
