About Me
Web developer from the Southwest side of Chicago now living in Austin and working professionally with Ruby on Rails. I have previously worked with Java and then .NET, so I can bring those experiences to the table in case you are trying to shift technologies. Also, I am starting to get into client-side JavaScript frameworks pretty heavily.
I am a strong believer in behavior-driven development and outside-in-development, a good example is shown here
I am not the type of mentor that will harass you to get work done, but I will review your code, answer your questions, and chat with you.
