Hi, I’m currently the Research Platform Team Lead at C4Media (creators of InfoQ/QCon) and a freelance consultant, focusing on rich Internet applications, web application security, mobile web, and web services. I’m also the Lead Editor for HTML5 and JavaScript for InfoQ, and the coauthor of “Pro HTML5 and CSS3 Design Patterns” by Apress and “The Essential Guide to HTML5 and CSS3 Web Design” by FRIENDS OF ED.
Going back and forth between server-side programming and UI design for more than a decade, I’ve been involved in diverse software projects and contributed to different technical publications.
When I have make spare time I blog, tweet and firmly believe that “inside every large post is a small post struggling to get out”.
