Background

About Richard Gibson

I am a passionate and talented programmer with an aptitude for learning new languages and paradigms. My employment so far has mostly comprised Agile development of.NET MVC web applications and WebApi services making use of TDD. I am also experienced in leading a Scrum team of developers. Programming is not just a job for me, but a hobby. I read extensively to keep up to date with the latest technologies and patterns, and I learn very quickly. As a result my UI designs are modern and fresh, and my server coding is rich with best practices and up-to-date methodologies. My goals are to become a Team Lead within the next one to two years, and architect within the next five. As for programming languages: I trained on Java, have professionally developed mostly in C#, and have a personal passion for F#. I am currently trying to introduce F# to my workplace by running demonstrations, Q&A sessions and presentations to my colleagues.
