Career Experience
Mar. 2002 - Present: Webkrew / Siintech / InstaClick Server-Side Developer
I was responsible for building a large number of back-end based statistics and redirection functionality. Very little of what I did at these website production companies was visually based and instead had to do with reading files or data from remote servers around the world as specific pages were loaded or when certain site statistics were requested. All of my work was in PHP or Perl hitting a MySQL database and was used by some 50 or 60 domains.
Jun. 2000 - Mar. 2002: Freelance Website Developer / DBA Website Development Consulting
Responsible for implementation and maintenance of Internet sites for parent and client companies including composition and construction of user interface, functional design, data modeling, server-side application development, site organization and, in some cases, graphic design and extensive site maintenance. Clients include:
Sep. 1999 - Mar. 2000: NuTrak Systems Oracle Database Specialist

Responsible for creation of fully dynamic Web-based application using Oracle 8i suite and PL/SQL procedures and functions, including full data model, for an online healthcare / diet / fitness solution.
