My Expert Service

I started writing software in 1982 on a TRS-80 Model I and I've been coding daily since. I went to work at Microsoft in their Operating Systems division at age 17 and was technical lead with a team of 11 programmers before my 19th birthday. I've written hundreds of projects in virtually every major programming language. I co-authored XML in a Nutshell in 1997 and at one point could name all 13 XPath axes off the top of my head. I've never failed to solve a programming problem, and don't plan to start now. Chat me up and get on with your project!

20+ years as a professional programmer. Just finished writing a custom HTTP server in C# to support high-performance COMET updates for a custom Silverlight application used by the US Coast Guard. Have been writing iPhone applications for a year now and have 5 applications in the App Store.
