    Bio

    I have been a web developer for over 25 years and have developed dynamic sites using PHP, Java, TCL, CGI, and PERL. I have extensive experience with front end design as well using Javascript, CSS, and HTML. I have used MySQL, SQL Server, and Informix. Over the last few years I have been developing using WordPress. I have written many plugins and a few of them are available to the public.
