Bio
Rai Phairow
Working with Ben on the Rooster Park team at ESPN was a great experience. I learned a lot from our daily technology discussions and occasionally learned that a long held belief about one technology or other was wrong (while trying to prove him wrong). Ben is technically strong in a wide array of programming languages and platforms. I consider Ben an asset to any technology team.
Mark Massé
Ben is a fantastic software development engineer. He brings passion, creativity, and thoughtfulness to his work. He has a knack for solving hard problems and always brings great ideas to the table. Ben has a positive attitude and a friendly demeanor that make working with him a pleasure. I strongly recommend Ben for any software development role.

Working with the backend services in Java on ICE. I also focus on providing business and customer service the tools to survive using Spring MVC. Lastly, we're doing our new services on Spring MVC with Hibernate, built using Maven and deployed using Capistrano. Our new Front-End architecture is PHP based with Symphony, some SASS, Assetic, Monolog and a bunch of other cool stuff put together by Nate Michael. Working with the backend services in Java on ICE.
