About Me

I'm a developer based in the SF bay area. I'm the creator of SwingXBuilder, a DSL for creating user interfaces using SwingX components. I'm a co-despot of Griffon, a framework to make rich applications using Groovy.

I tweet a bit, friendfeed a bit and try to stay LinkedIn.

I often speak at conferences about Groovy technology. If you'd like me to speak at your event or lead a hands-on session, drop me a line.
