I’ve been responsible for a wide range of highly technical and visual projects over the past 18 years of my career ranging from building websites to developing digital advertising campaigns to managing teams of software engineers to teaching 3D rendering, video editing, and compositing. For the past 9 years or so, I’ve been primarily in the NYC advertising business, on both the agency and adtech sides of the industry.

For the last 4 years, almost everything I've worked on in a professional setting has been grounded in git. I was "owner" and originator of more than a few repos in that time, I've submitted and merged plenty of pull requests, had my fair share of hand merging thousands of lines of code, and set standards for use in most of the positions I've held over that time.

I started using Flash right around 2004. I have most experience is AS3, a bunch in AS2, and some in AS1. I've worked on huge codebases with large hierarchies of OOP based classes and utility classes. In at least 3 full-time roles, I've had to learn, optimize, and refactor large AS3 frameworks from the ground up.

Highly recommend! Went over Actionscript / AS3 code and got me super far and past major roadblocks during the session. Great to work with and very patient and meticulous. Lots of code improvement suggestions as well.
