I have been coding since 1992. Starting with Apple Basic (on an Apple IIe). I have skill in PHP, PERL, Javascript, jQuery, HTML, CSS, Delphi/Pascal, C, C#, C++, MySQL, and MSSQL. I am a Linux person. I prefer open source. Comfortable with command line interface.
I enjoy writing software. More than a technical skill, it is an art. Concept, design, create, debug, update, test, implement. More than just writing code. I see coding as an artist sees painting. I read, think, talk, learn, and dream about programming.
