Summary

Getting familiar with existing source code is one of my strengths. Whether it's T-SQL or languages such as C#/VB.NET/jQuery/JavaScript, I feel at home. Thanks to introducing the GDF framework (implementing SharePoint and its enhancements/programming/web parts) at IBM, I needed a quick understanding of the client's side and possible implementations during the meetings. Yet I never lost sight of the final picture of the software.

Personally, I am a calm person with a positive attitude. When problems arise, I look for solutions and see every problem, big or small, as a positive experience. Hey, I get to learn from it. I want to understand people from other cultures and languages; open discussions on any topic interest me.
