I Make Code
The first thing that I can remember programming was a Mechwarrior-esque game on the TI-83 calculator back in high school using the BASIC-like language. It was responsible for a lowered average grade in the Trig/Pre-calc class that year. On the backend I am digging C#, ASP.NET MVC, Python, and Pylons.
Since then I've grown into the web development space. I enjoy HTML/JavaScript/CSS. It's my opinion that this will be the future rather than RIA Flash/Silverlight apps.
Current Projects
Sogeti — My Day Job
I am a Senior Consultant with Sogeti USA. I've specialized in web development, primarily ASP.NET and recently, the ASP.NET MVC framework. I've worked for and delighted some big name clients such as Wells Fargo, Aetna, and LifeLock.
Managed Ministries — My "Other" Job
I am also serving as a Technical Advisor for a non-profit startup making management software for churches. The pitch is this: software that churches use today is either ridiculously expensive, or terrible, or both. We aim to fix this.

I Take Pictures
I started to get serious about photography a few years ago. Back then, I fancied myself as more of a landscape and nature photographer, but have come to enjoy people and portraiture much more, I love to see the reaction on person's face when they see just how good they can look.
