SUMMARY:

• I've been working for the past 5 years building the webservices necessary to conduct search and user storage functions for a website. I'm in the big data loading, searching and retrieving field and any job that provides a challenging environment (like, save 10 ms out of a 1 sec transaction) and keeps me on the edge interests me.

TECHNICAL SKILLS:

Skills: RESTful webservices using Java Big data management and search using Marklogic Webpage development using J2EE and JQuery.
