I am a web application architect with over fifteen years of experience. I have a passion for learning and a desire to be challenged. I find that scalability, security, and web services all provide unique and diverse challenges, and these are the areas in which I have expertise and knowledge to share. Sharing knowledge is important to me. I'm a prolific writer and frequent speaker, often writing and speaking about web services and HTTP. I've written for phparchitect, International PHP Magazine, and Zend Developer Zone, and I'm a co-author of phparchitect's Zend PHP Certification Study Guide. I've spoken at conferences such as OSCON, Zend PHP Conference and Expo, and phptek. Fostering a healthy community for programmers is important to me, as well.
