I’m a roving soul with a real passion for knowledge and ideas, always seeking and exploring new paradigms in technical, artistic, business and social domains. Being aware that knowledge by itself does not yield understanding (it depends upon the relation of knowledge to being), I regularly venture into novelty, to grow from diverse experiences. Over two decades of various endeavors in IT had produced in me a skilled problem-solver, who focuses on bringing innovative concepts to life without compromising usability, accessibility or simplicity.
I’m a self-educated and self-sufficient freelance / company based technician / developer / designer / consultant for over 20 years and have real-world experience in all aspects of dedicated solution development – of requirements gathering, problem analysis, architecture development, database and GUI design, business/control logic programming, testing and performance optimization, deployment, content/db management, user support and overall client liaison. Although I’m a believer in the Bauhaus coined term of “form follows function”, I strive to approach any work I do with more than just an engineering or usability challenge in mind. With extensive experience in graphic design, illustration, 3D modeling, animation, video editing and post-production, I’m capable of creating technically, functionally and aesthetically pleasing solutions.
Software development is my primary field of expertise. In over 20 years of professional experience I’ve worked on many different platforms and employed diverse design patterns, process methodologies and countless ever emerging frameworks in integrating, automating and solving various complex problems. I have a proven track record of independency and am often asked to menthor outside my usual workplace. At this point in my career/development as a programmer I think about and solve problems at the highest semantic level and can architect and build a working solution for almost any existing platform/system in an arbitrary programming language in a very short time.. the time needed to lookup the appropriate syntax 🙂

In the recent years I was involved in several R&D projects developing consumer devices. Although I can’t proclaim myself as an HW engineer, I have a fair understanding of digital circuits, embedded systems, and DSP at an integration level.

For as long as I can remember, basically my whole life, I couldn’t bare being just a passive observer. I’m a proactive person in a true sense of the word, who tries his best to increase his rate of communication from concepts to meaning by ways of all multimedia available. I don’t watch TV, don’t listen to radio, rarely even read magazines.. I like to create my own roadshow, my own culture.
