Bill's Résumé (CV) *
as of 11 Jan 2011

I am an accomplished programmer and software engineering manager with over 35 years of experience. I am expert in C, C++, Objective C ,Perl, Python, PHP, SQL, and most web-oriented technologies. I have written system, mobile, and application-level code for projects large and small. I hold a patent in database technology and have particular expertise in telecommunications, networking, and email technologies, as well as databases.

I am the author of the popular open-source utility bw-whois, that I freely distribute to the Internet community as a public service. I hold a patent for the database technology used in the The Web Music Database.

I have written or contributed to dozens of computer-related books and periodicals, including The CGI Book and Creative HTML Design.

I am currently writing and delivering courseware for lynda.com, and have over 25 titles in their library.

Please contact me to discuss your project or if you need any further information.

NOTE: I am extremely picky about the jobs that I accept. If would like me to consider a contract position that you are offering, be sure to include a complete description of the project, the time frame that you expect it to be completed in, and the rate of pay you are offering. Do not expect me to play the "how much do you require" game. I don't do that and I will ignore your request.
