About Me

I've loved creating things since childhood and once I got my hands on my first computer I started teaching myself how to program and never looked back. I eventually achieved my B.S. in Computer Science and now spend my days being quite passionate about whatever fun software projects I can get my hands on.

For the past 13 years I've worked in the airline industry on the revenue accounting side of the business. I also do a bit of system administration work, but that's more out of necessity than enjoyment. What I really love is creating intelligent PHP applications for interesting web sites.

In my spare time for the past 4 years I've been part of what is far and away the best video community anywhere, VideoSift.

Recently I've been working on a very intricate shopping cart system for Neatorama.com called NeatoCart. Of course, I also designed and manage TeeVirus.com, which sells interesting t-shirts designed by the site's users. I've found myself doing a bit of work alongside and inside WordPress lately, but I'd be more interested in writing a new WordPress.

Anyway, this little empty page may be replaced eventually with something of more substance, but for now I'll just let it tell you this little bit about myself.

I just found this old program I wrote a few years ago (in 2005). It's a desktop application that I was toying with as a very simplified version of an MP3 playlist editor and MP3 player. My goal was to make it simple and unobtrusive (see the image below) and in its current unfinished form, I think I achieved that. The player is tiny and can be hidden/controlled (play, pause, previous, next) in the system tray. Download, unzip, and give it a try if you're up to it: LMEdit.zip.

Here's another neat old app I wrote back in 2003. It's a binary clock and aside from telling time, its main purpose is to illustrate how geeky cool you are to anyone who sees it on your computer screen. Download it: binclock.zip. Double-click to change the color of the virtual LEDs and hit ESC to close it.
