Working With Rails

I’ve been working almost exclusively with Ruby (and Rails) for the last couple of years and the nine years I’ve been in the industry has included much Perl, Java, PHP & databases on UNIX systems, generally for the web. I’m an experienced developer, and take pride in building clean, well thought out and tested solutions.

I started freelancing in February 2006 and I’ve been lucky enough to work on some great projects for companies, directly or indirectly, including the National Science Museum, BBC and O’Reilly. In the past I’ve worked as a full time software engineer for Ananova (remember – the first virtual newscaster?), Orange and Energis (now Cable & Wireless).

You can always find me at GeekUp Leeds on the third Wednesday of the month, or the very cool Leeds Ruby Thing.
