Well, I am not going to sleep until I blog about POSSCON. It really started yesterday evening with the Engine Yard Beer Social. That was a ton of fun! Then today we had a blast. A bunch of great talks. Dave Stokes gave a great talk about some of the new stuff to expect in the next version of MySQL…it’s exciting. Also, great talks from the president of SugarCRM, Mad Dog, and others. It was a great start. And of course then end of the day was the Git Hub Drink UP. Wow!! What a crowd!! Certainly the biggest POSSCON ever!!

Well, I was born on a normal day in July, 1981 and have been creating chaos ever since. Born in North Carolina, but raised in the aftermath of the Soviet Union, Kazakhstan, I have been messing around with computers nearly my entire life. I wrote my first program in assembly when I was 11. In my early teens I ran a BBS connected to Fidonet and started building a website for my band. In 1999 I was introduced to Linux, and it was love at first compile. I started my career in IT in the early 2000's doing IT for a Car Dealership in Charlotte NC. I wrote my first major web app in Cold Fusion (an ecom app) at that time. In 2006 I left Charlotte and moved down to Columbia where starting working as a developer, freelancer and consultant. Currently I am working as a freelance developer and DevOps consultant!!
