I've been programming as a hobby since 1989 when my parents purchased a computer with DOS and gwbasic. During college I became interested in the Web and I eventually landed a job in 2000 with the university that allowed me to get hands-on experience with server administration, Web development, and desktop support. I eventually specialized in Web development and have had experience with Classic ASP, PHP, and ASP.NET. I enjoy programming in general but I love the challenge of working with SQL, JavaScript, and even functional languages like Haskell and F#.
