- OBJECTIVE
- To develop "hot" technical writing on the Web using the latest
available technologies, such as Java, JavaScript, CGI, Perl, and C shell
scripts. Particularly interested in multimedia applications for educational
purposes, since manuals and tutorials in hard-copy are done much better
in HTML format.
- HTML/WEB DESIGN EXPERIENCE
- Developed and mantained Web pages and servers since the spring of 1993.
Techniques used on the pages include CGI (written utilizing C and Perl scripts),
forms, frames, tables, and HTML 2.0, 2+, 3.0, and Netscape extensions. The
pages were developed with custom tools written in C, Hypertalk, and WordBasic.
- Expertise in all flavors and aspects of HTML including backgrounds,
font sizes/colors, tables, imagemaps (both client and server), client-pull,
and server-push. Setup of user authentication and password databases. Experienced
with servers fromWEBStar.
- Here are some examples of my work:
- The New York Subway Finder
Very popular in New York City; there are currently over 160 other sites
that point to this site.
- Kubrick on the Web
This site has been featured on NHK, the television network of Japan. It
has received four stars from Magellan, the Web site rating service, and
has also been featured in the book What's On the Web.
- Westwood CoHousing
This site has helped a CoHousing group go from 8 members to 15 in three
months.
- Would The Real First Amendment Please Stand Up?
(online-book)
An online-book that received over 500 hits in its first twenty days of existence.

- WORK HISTORY
- In the last six years, I have worked on a free-lance and semi-permanent
basis for several Fortune 500 corporate clients, including IBM, Chemical
Bank, American Express. At these clients I had various responsibilities,
ranging from troubleshooting assignments and technical writing to network
design. At American Express I supervised two employees while helping manage
nearly 200 Macs, and I documented networking technical systems at Chemical
Bank using Visual Basic and HTML.
In addition, I have worked for other major clients. For example, at Willkie,
Farr, and Gallagher, one of the top 20 law firms in the United States, I
helped to manage the transition from a Wang VS environment to a LAN running
PC's and Macs connected over an Ethernet backbone. I have also done private
work for several other law offices, travel agencies, real estate offices,
and public relations firms. I have worked in many facets of computing, including
graphics, databases, word processing, and, of course, web design. I have
also written some books when I had a spare moment or two.
