I'm a software engineer, who's been working with building software since 1997, specially web-based applications. In terms of technology, my career is pretty much separated into two parts: Java and Ruby. I've built web applications for large telecommunication companies, such as Manitoba Telecommunications(MTS), AMCTV, We.tv, News12, and SportSkool using Java frameworks, including Struts, Webwork and Spring. Since 2006, I've moved to the Ruby camp, and have really enjoyed working full-time with Ruby and Rails, dynamic easily-testable languages as the way to go. I am currently working with the great team at Unspace in Toronto, Canada.

I co-authored Beginning Rails for Apress, published in 2007, and have been asked to write Beginning Rails 3 for the upcoming Rails 3 release. "Beginning Rails 3" is the practical starting point for anyone wanting to learn how to build dynamic web applications using the latest release of the Ruby on Rails framework. You'll learn how all of the components of Rails fit together and how you can leverage them to create sophisticated web applications with less code and more joy.
