Former embedded systems specialist and Ruby geek. I've built cockpit satellite navigation and moving map systems, automation systems for broadcast media and all manner of weird network applications.

There was also a brief and frustrating career teaching developers how to build flexible, powerful, mission-critical systems on a budget based on my experience with avionics certification. I loathe bureaucracy, methodology and anything else that distracts from true agility.

As a Sun Certified Java Programmer with over 8 years of Java, Swing, and J2EE experience, I became frustrated with the amount of configuration, duplication, and boilerplate that was a necessary part of Java development.

Introduced to the Ruby on Rails framework in the fall of 2005, I _never_ looked back.

I've been a Senior Software Architect at Labrador Technologies since 2005, bringing over 23 years experience in end-to-end software development and 17 years of object oriented programming and design experience.

I run my own web application development company, Visible Red, specializing in Ruby on Rails. I'm a strong believer in creating useful, usable tools using open source technologies. I advocate a pragmatic, agile approach to development that includes lots of rapid prototyping, and can talk about my experiences applying this approach within large organizations.
