I'm a Software Engineer at Graphite Software. I've been working professionally in the field for over fifteen years with development experience in a wide variety of projects including object oriented databases, police communication systems, speech recognition and unified messaging. My current focus is contributing to the open source PhoneGap project to enable developers to create cross platform mobile applications using Web technologies. I've been building web applications since the days they were written using shell scripts and I still have nightmares about those dark days.
