Designed, built, and maintained a variety of distributed applications on both the Java and .NET platforms.
Particularly interesting work includes a large-scale OCR application, currently processing millions of images daily.
More recent work includes cloud-based applications running on Amazon Web Services.
Built and maintained a distributed web application using the .NET platform which serviced over a million interactive user sessions daily.
Major concentration of computer science, minor concentration of mathematics.

An ongoing hobby since my undergraduate years is the development of programs that play chess.
My creations have competed against both humans and other computer players on the Internet Chess Club (ICC) and during the 2006 Americas' Computer Chess Championships.
I dabble with my camera. Some examples are viewable here and here.
