Using modern technologies like Pivot Tracker, Trello, and Git; I have real world experience collaborating with a team.
I have created simple and complex systems with and without multiple frameworks. My expertise lies in architecting complex problems into manageable pieces. I strive to adapt DRY and SOLID principles in my work.
Nothing beats the 'ah ha' moment when you finally understand a difficult concept. I love passing on my experience to newbies new developers.

I'm also the author of PHP to Ruby which is the most complete guide to teaching PHP developers how to learn Ruby.
