About
Hi there!
My name is Sean. I bet your name is Chris; if not, then perhaps that's what your friends call you. So, that's what I am going to call you. So, hello Chris, and welcome to my profile.
You're probably wondering who this guy is? Well, I already gave you my name (and I already have yours), so we're off to a good start.
In a nutshell, I'm a software geek.
What does that mean? Well, it means that I write software. I use software. I debug software. I live and breathe software. I'm not a one-trick pony, either. I'm a generalist. I've done web apps, internet daemons, and network management tools. I've done data warehousing, flash memory test automation, and system administration. I shine the most on Unix environments, but I'm adaptable to pretty much everything.
Chris, the one thing about me that you should know, is that I enjoy what I do. It's an art to me and I've been told I'm pretty good at it.
The other thing you should know is that I'm not seeking new work at present. My ears are open, but my plate is full.
If you're curious about what I've done in the past, you can get a sense of it by scrolling down to the experience section. The list isn't complete. If you really want to get to know me, please drop me a line. I've cleverly encoded my contact information at the bottom of this profile.
So, Chris, thanks for reading.
Cheers,
Sean
