My Work

Below are some examples of notable projects and places I've worked at. If you're interested in hiring, let me know.

What's Up Interactive - 2009-Today

What's Up Interactive has been a great experience for me, because it was the first time I have been able to work in a moderately sized team. I've been able to interact with other developers and learn from them, as well as doing some teaching of my own. While here, I've been able to learn the intricacies of Joomla and gain some proficiency with Zend Framework. I've lead a push for the use of MVC frameworks and OOP. I've also been given the opportunity to create several re-usable modules for Zend Framework.

Beyond straight PHP, I've been able to work with the Facebook API, Twitter API, and the Silverpop API. Additionally, I've been moving into iOS development and learning Objective C. I'll be leading the development of client apps, and plan to build a few apps of my own.

Southern Web Group 2008-2009

Southern Web Group was my first foray out of academia. It was an excellent opportunity, as I was dropped immediately into the fray. I was the php developer and server administrator during my tenure there. I was able to learn some new techniques in PHP and gained additional proficiency with LAMP administration.

Georgia Tech Microelectronics Research Center 2007-2009

The Microelectronics Research Center (MiRC) was my first real development job. I was hired primarily as a PHP developer, but was soon involved in server administration, hardware/software integration, equipment maintenance, and even a bit of PLC development. The job was exciting, because I was able to do so many things. My primary achievement was the creation of a touchscreen interface for logging into equipment in the lab bays. This would then toggle a relay that would enable use of the machine. The learning experience was unbelievable. I was dealing with touchscreens I had never used before, a LAMP webpage to display on the touchscreens, a java applet capturing card swipes and sending it to javascript for an AJAX call, and a relay controller connecting to a java application that toggled relays based upon database changes. This was an end-to-end hardware/software integration that I hope to have the opportunity to do in the future.
