Bio
Daniel Vargo
It has been nothing but a pleasure to work with Paul for the past year. Paul is one of the most competent engineers I have worked with. He understands design patterns, coding principles/conventions, optimizations and is able to aptly apply them. Paul has also showed incredible dedication and dexterity to the team and the project. Many long nights we spent making sure the customer was getting exactly what they wanted. If you are looking for someone who is not just good, but truly "skilled" in the world of software, Paul is your guy.

Looking for someone to solve a problem no one has been able to solve before? Paul's your guy. Perhaps you need a seasoned pro with a wide range of experience in multiple technologies. I've witnessed Paul do this more than once. Then again, maybe you're in search of that rare person with deep coding chops to deliver high quality, fully tested code to production in record time. Guess what? All these scenarios fit Paul like a custom glove. Very talented guy with a great sense of humor.
