I have led teams for over a decade; creating complex, highly secure

applications with one application still in production since 1996. I have

worked with J2EE/Java, JSP and Servlets ever since 1999. I have written and

taught HTML since 1993. My work with WebLogic and Oracle started in 2002

and has continued since. My experience with UNIX began in 1986 at AT&T and

I have also taught UNIX at the University level. I have a Ph.D. and have
