I'm an alpha-geek with a passion for software engineering. I have a verifiable track record of successfully solving

used by the NSA and CIA. Additionally, I've trained and mentored hundreds of professionals in technical subjects

such as software engineering, web development, software scalability, Java EE, UNIX/Linux, client/GUI

I hope that I'll be given the opportunity to work on innovative solutions with you in your organization.
