EXPERIENCE

May 2006 to Present Freelance Contractor
San Mateo, San Francisco, San Jose (various clients)
I work for CNE Media part time as a software engineer. See below for details, regarding dec 2005 to may 2005..

I provide technical training and documentation to other local web developers, regarding actionscript, flash, dreamweaver, php, perl, cgi, html, xml, xslt, css, css2, as2, ajax, ruby on rails, and more as needed.

Dec 2005 to May 2006 Software Engineer
CNE Media San Francisco California
I work in an enterprise LAMP environment maintaining the codebase of about 35 high-traffic websites. Linux, Apache, Mysql, and Object Oriented Php. On a typical day I write new php functions, edit old php functions, delete old php functions, and test the changes against the entire codebase to ensure that everything continues to work as expected. I also test to ensure that all works correctly in IE and FireFox web browsers, as well as verify that the rest of the codebase continues to function properly with my additions.
I have also converted a php message board to Ruby on Rails as a proof of concept and to develop my own skills. Some of the tool I use at this job include SSH Tectia Client, Zend Studio, and Scite.
I also do various database management, design, modeling, and create sql queries on a daily basis. I usually use SSH Tectia Client and occasionally use a gui such as mysql admin or phpAdmin.

I developed and programmed the websites, buyersport.com and wurldmedia.com using html,jsp, dhtml, javascript, dreamweaver, macromedia flash, actionscript, and visual sourcesafe, based on photos that the traditional graphic designer gave to me. 

Next, I trained the traditional graphic designer

Next, I installed a chatbot to the intranet and developed a honeypot for internet security features that I was researching and developing. 

I also conducted basic penetration tests on the intranet and extranet, suggested solutions, implemented solutions.
