TL;DR: I love all things front-end. My passion is developing intuitive, user-friendly single-page web applications. I've got a rare combination of design sensibility, strong technical experience, and proven leadership skills. While I've had hands-on experience in leading a team successfully through the development lifecycle, and running workshops teaching Javascript... I ultimately love chunks of heads-down coding time these days. I follow the mantra "beautiful on the inside, beautiful on the outside." This means I lean toward DRY practices and clean code. Visually, I like the polish and little things that make a good GUI great. ▪ Expert in scalable cross-browser object oriented Javascript development; front-end tools like Backbone.js, jQuery, lodash/Underscore, dojo / dijit / writing custom widgets ▪ Experience with advanced visualizations using D3, SVG, Google Maps API, CSS 3D Transforms, CSS3 transitions, and keyframe animation Additional skills: ▪ Dependency management and code structure using AMD modules, requireJS, bower components. Build using Grunt, various node npm modules, including custom tasks. ▪ CSS pre-processors LESS and Sass; Bootstrap. Image optimization using sprite sheets and custom font generation.

(Also, at one time I've written Java, JSP, Struts, ant, J2EE, bash/scripting languages, SQL -- but not really interested anymore.)
