I dig Ruby and Perl, hate PHP, and had enough of C. I prefer TextMate but admire vim masters. I’ve been an IT / Web site director since 1999, previously at projo.com.

I’ve been playing guitar for a long time and drinking beer for a little less time. I have a great family, and my son is soopa cute.

Now *that* was fun! I'm already budgeting for RailsConf 2011 -- and thinking of different songs to play.
