                                                         A LITTLE ABOUT ME

I'm italian, I live in the UK, I'm 24, I have an HND in computer science.  I work for an Online Legal Firm managing their Web and Software Developments and general IT.

I was first introduced to HTML in January 2004, a few months later i was introduced to ASP - Knowing literally the bare essentials, i was in desperate need of some where that would teach, yet be adequate for a beginner to understand! In a nutshell...Experts-Exchange!  Without EE i would not be where i am today!

                                                        CODING EXPERIENCE

ASP ~ ADO ~ VbScript  ~ JavaScript ~ VB6 ~ HTML ~ XML ~ XSD ~ XSLT
C# ~ VB.net ~ ASP.net ~ VS 2005 ~ SourceSafe ~ .Net Frameworks
TSQL/ANSISQL ~ MS Access ~ SQL Server 2000/2005

                                                          HOW I FOUND EE!

Google!

                                                            PRIVATE WORK

Out of the question, i barely have enough time to eat!
