I studied Computer Science and Engineering at UCLA, graduated in 2001 Magna Cum Laude. Since then I've mostly C programming. Over the last couple years I've done some web development, and have worked on projects using PHP, Javascript, JQuery, CSS, and Java (which has become my primary focus). I recently completed the OCJP with 95% and am working on a fairly large/complex web application and learning as much as I can about Java EE 6 (JSF, JPA, EJB, etc.). I'm planning on completing a couple more certifications in the not to distant future (maybe the Oracle JPA and EJB related certs).
