About
I’m a Dutch webdeveloper with over 6 years of experience in the internet business. Gradually building my knowledge and expertise by specializing in developing PHP in high-availability solutions for domestic and international companies. Besides that I am an active member of the Open Source community by being a module developer for Phorum 5.
Because of my work at Sanoma Digital (formerly: Ilse Media) I learned a lot about high-availability. Specifically Apache optimization and distributed networking as used by Startpagina.nl. For the Prikborden (Forums) we use at Startpagina.nl I also implemented the Lucene SolR search server.
Experience with:
- PHP 3/4/5
- MySQL 3/4/5
- CouchDB
- Linux
- Apache
- Varnish
- Plesk
- Virtuozzo
- Perl
- JavaScript
- HTML4/5 + XHTML + CSS
Experience in frameworks and other open source systems
- Zend Framework
- CodeIgniter

- Phorum

Currently I’m employed at DitNet. A Dutch Webdevelopment/Webdesign company where I am a backend developer and system administrator.
In the time I call “off-time” I play a lot guitar. I’m still looking for a band so if you know one which needs a lead guitarist let me know :p
