Focuses include high-availability, data integrity and database scalability.

I thoroughly enjoy doing memcached and Sphinx implementations for databases that are struggling to keep up with read-heavy load.

I also do from-scratch development, ideally done within the Django Framework. .NET/WPF is available as well if you want it for whatever reason. I’m well versed in PHP/PDO if absolutely necessary, but there’s no real reason to use that archaic technology anymore now is there.

If your office is still using Excel spreadsheets that get emailed around between users, I can help! If you need a way to manage and analyze your data, I’m there for you! Ideally, you work at, or know of a small to mid-size business that needs a solution written for them. I offer a 5 percent finders fee for any referrals thrown my way.

Got an idea that you want turned into a web site? Well, I’m a terrible designer, but I can write the backend for you! (And I have designers I outsource to if you want a full website made. One of whom does Web 2.0 trendy designs, and one of whom does minimalist layouts.) And I’m not a jerk! If I think Etsy or Shopify is going to be a better solution for you, I’ll tell you.
