About Me

Versatile back-end developer with 10+ years of experience using PHP and its related frameworks. I specialize in developing service-oriented applications and am passionate about working for startup companies. I have an extensive background developing projects from scratch although I can easily work with legacy code as well. I routinely take on the most complex and challenging projects and will persevere until I have created the optimal product/solution. I enjoy working with clients and have a long history of delivering outstanding customer experiences.
