ABOUT ME
EXPERTISE

C#
- 5 years experience
With a gold badge for C# on StackOverflow, I know the ins and outs of this language better than just about anybody.

JavaScript
- 7 years experience
Because of its low barrier to entry, it's easy to get away with barely understanding how Javascript works, but that doesn't mean you're writing good code. You need to know the patterns that will keep your code modular and robust.

HTML/CSS
- 7 years experience
HTML and CSS are often some of the most painful parts of web development, as we have to deal with browser inconsistencies and CSS's tendency to bleed into places we didn't want it to be. But I'm usually pretty good at finding the source of those annoying bugs and--more importantly--using code patterns that help to avoid them in the future.

Language integrated query
- 5 years experience
As one co-worker said, "the more you use LINQ... the more you use LINQ!" It helps to transform traditional imperative code patterns into simpler, more modular, functional code patterns.
I am really good at LINQ, as evidenced by my silver badge on StackOverflow.

Java
- 3 years experience
Even though I only work in Java from time to time these days, my silver badge on StackOverflow attests that I'm well-versed with the language, and often able to help even more-experienced engineers to find better ways to write their code.
Now that Java is getting lambda expressions, my C# experience is likely to prove even more valuable in this domain.

SQL
- 7 years experience
I'm comfortable with relational database design and writing queries. I can make educated guesses about performance issues, but database administration is not my strongest point.

jQuery
- 5 years experience
Even people who use jQuery on a regular basis often miss out on some of its most powerful features, and end up writing code that's way more complex and fragile than it needs to be. I can show you how to trim down that code, and make sure it's stable and fast!

Asp.net mvc
- 3 years experience
I am familiar with even the more advanced aspects of ASP.NET MVC, like custom editor templates and model binding.

Code review
- 7 years experience
I have a keen eye for defects, and a nose for code smells. I'll help you notice where your code can be improved, and teach you the principles so you can be a better programmer moving forward.

AngularJS
- 1 year experience
