SUMMARY

I have just completed my Bachelor of Science Professional Software Development at Swinburne University of Technology. During this time I have been exposed to different technologies, development methodologies and paradigms. I have also been part of and been team leader of projects up to 10 people in the university environment.

Since the start of 2008 I am also a registered sole trader or contractor where I build small online business solutions for small companies. These include websites to three-tier web applications. This has given me the experience of starting projects from scratch by meeting with clients, creating designs and refining requirements to creating a finished product and ensuring it satisfies the client’s needs.

I’ve also started developing for the mobile market, such as the iPhone, Google Android and Windows Phone 7. This is a new and rapid growing area which I’m very excited to be able to be a part of. I enjoy learning new technologies and the mobile market is the perfect place.
