I have been developing the LAMP environment for more than 15 years as my programming specialty is PHP. I am familiar with front end development and can navigate effectively with AJAX-style development, JavaScript and jQuery. With my main strengths in back-end development, I currently work extensively with not only PHP but the Linux operating system. Server setup and development in VIM is a strong suite which include Apache and all Apache-PHP modules. I also work deeply with MySQL as I use PHPMyAdmin and command line (shell) for my MySQL work. Caching and PHP load-balancing practices are utilized when using MySQL. PHP components used very frequently are cURL, JSON, SimpleXMLElement and Object Oriented principles to name a few. The content management system I have worked the most is Drupal. The version experience with Drupal is versions 5, 6 and 7 (currently using). I work with many Drupal community modules as well as make my own appropriate for the project. Common modules used are Views, Apache Solr, Taxonomy, Load Balancing, Beans and more.
I have a bachelors degree in Business Management and have managed teams with over 20 direct reports. I have over 1000 LinkedIn contacts nationwide and several dozen recent accolades that can attest to my ability and performance. Full references are available upon request.
