- How did you hear about Codetown?
- Coworker
- What are your main interests in software development?
- I'm sort of a Java geek who also knows a thing or two about JSF/IceFaces, Spring, Tomcat, Postgres, Linux, Hibernate, TeamCity, Web Services, etc. I'd like to expand my knowledge to include more cloud development as well as technologies like JQuery, JSON, and anything that's up and coming.
Happy 10th year, JCertif!
