24 | | - |
25 | | -Hi, I'm Michael, Michael Joseph (yes, two first names, I know. MJ works as |
26 | | -an internet handle, for people into the whole brevity thing as well as for |

29 | | -I have worked in the computer / internet industry for the last 14 years, |
30 | | -primarily as a backend software engineer for web applications. |
31 | | - |
32 | | -I have seen enough technology pass through the mill to be fairly agnostic |
33 | | -across all the usual religious divides (programming language, editor, |
34 | | -tabs vs spaces (ok, wait, scratch the last one, I _am_ zealous about |
35 | | -whitespace)). I play extremely well with others, but I also _need_ to have |
36 | | -*some* solo time. |
37 | | - |
38 | | -I can write, read and review (in order of preference and experience): |

51 | | -I spoke at [PyconZA 2013](https://archive.org/details/pyconza2013-app-to-platform) |
52 | | -about the work we did at [Yola](https://www.yola.com) during my time there, and |
53 | | -at [PyconZA 2014](https://archive.org/details/pyconza2014-cookie-monster) about becoming a contributor to an Open Source project. |
