I am a contract programmer working in Dublin, Ireland. I started programming back in the 80s on an old Sinclair ZX Spectrum and haven`t stopped since. I started working as a professional programmer in 1998 and became a contractor in 2005. For most of my career, I`ve mostly worked on line-of-business type applications for organisations of various sizes, initially in languages like Visual Basic 6 and Java and more recently in C# and Visual Basic.NET, with some PHP thrown in for good measure along the way. I`ve also worked on the database side, with MySQL, Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server. I tend to be fairly agnostic in these things... LinkedIn Profile: ©
