A picture of me

I have been working in the field of web development for several years now and was mainly developing PHP applications with Zend Frameork. More recently I also started developing with Groovy and the Grails framework.

Nevertheless, all projects I am involved in also depend on a certain portion of JavaScript, which is my preferred language anyhow. Next to using plain old JavaScript, I mainly worked with YUI and jQuery. Furthermore I have experience with Backbone.js, Sproutcore and some other smaller libraries like Socket.io.

As for now, we developers also have to care about storing our customers data. So I have come across different databases as well. As a MySQL grownup I have also worked with Amazons SDB extensively. Recently switching a large project from memcached to Redis brought me a significant portion of knowledge about Redis.

When not involved in actual project work, I do some open source development to keep me up to date with recent trends in web development and to contribute back to what I use on a daily basis.
