I’m a passionate programmer and product developer. I’ve been programming professionally since 2002 and I bring expertise in both front-end and back-end development.

In the last ten years, I’ve successfully executed freelance, open source and enterprise projects. I have been part of cross-functional and cross-cultural teams and I’ve had the opportunity to work with some very interesting people and companies.

I enjoy building browser based, real-time apps using innovative technologies including Node.js, Socket.io, Express.js, HTML5, JQuery, SugarJS, CSS3 etc.

Enterprise technologies that interest me are primarily Python and Scala. I’ve been working with NoSQL databases — MongoDB and Google Data Store APIs in particular.

Other technologies that I’ve had fun with over the years are Adobe Flex, Java (Spring, Hibernate and popular enterprise frameworks), PHP 5 and related platforms, frameworks and libraries.

I’m a keen open-source enthusiast and my GitHub profile contains contributions to various Node.js, Scala, Python and Adobe Flex projects.

I’m the author of the Apache Maven 3 Cookbook (Packt Publishing, ISBN 978-1-849512-442) which is available for purchase in stores and on Barnes and Nobles, Amazon and Flipkart.

I’m the creator of Review19 and other products and formal work history and resume can be found on my LinkedIn profile.

Feel free to contact me for programming assignments, product development, consulting and strategy.
