Looking forward to the next chapter…

I am stoked to announce that I have joined the great minds at litl as a Channel Developer. While I love the city of Boston, I will remain working remotely, for now. I can’t express how happy I am to be able to tele-commute and be able to spend more time close to my family.

I have been an enterprise developer at King Pharmaceuticals for the past 3 years and am ready to get back to the other side of the firewall. While King is a great place to work, both for East Tennessee and for the team members, there is little chance to do much public facing development. Also, I am really looking forward to working with a team of peers working on similar projects that I can contribute to and learn a lot from. To me, a new job is not only a chance to bring my own experiences to the table, but to soak up as much of the massive brain power of the other team members as possible.

I started my career in this industry working for a start up that was very innovative, pushing the boundaries of what could be done with the tools available, and had unbelievable talent. The group at litl reminds me somewhat about a start up I worked for so many years ago (pre dot bomb) and for so long ( at least the good parts ).

Since beginning my career in the mid 90’s I have been a 3D artist/animator, Flash and Director developer, web designer/developer, project manager (gasp) and an enterprise developer. After all of that Flash is still my passion and I am super excited to have the opportunity to help create some ground breaking experiences on the litl web book and soon the litl web-connected TV product.

What I look forward to most is being able to rub elbows with some of the Flash community’s most talented: Kevin Suttle [ @kevinsuttle ], Chuck Freedman [ @chuckstar ], Ash Atkins [ @razorberry ] and Kathryn Rotundo [ @krotondo ] just to mention a few.
