So I have a client who wanted to have mp3’s that the user could listen to and also download. Since I’m very against having to constantly manage a clients content I wanted him to be able to have no problem adding and removing mp3 files. Normally, one might have an xml file that the user [...]

So I’m currently working on my first mxml project at work (I’ve done other stuff but not at work so they were much less involved).
I realized a little in to the project that using the TextArea control can be a bit of a pain the ass at times. Namely, I couldn’t find a way to [...]

So I’m currently in a flashCodersNY meeting and today’s topic is ANT. Wow! I’ve messed with ANT slightly in java but oh you can do some sweet stuff with ANT and Flex deploying to a server. Will try and update later…

Loading an image from an external domain without a crossdomain.xml file can be tricky. typically I want to just grab the content of the loader and use it to be referenced for whatever. But in this case, when loading from an external domain that doesn’t have a [...]

It’s been a very interesting road I have traveled as of late. When I started starwood I was a little upset that I didn’t get a position in NY doing Java development, but since as3 it’s quite similar to Java. I picked up the language in about a week or so and couldn’t imagine going [...]
I've lived in New York for about four years now and before that lived in Detroit where I started my career at Raytheon developing E-Learning solutions. Once I moved to NYC I started with Starwood Hotels and Resorts working initially on Flash for the television and moving to the web dev team after that. I love anything that's random in terms of coding and am constantly thinking about how best to recreate the seemingly randomness of nature. When not having my face stuck in a computer monitor I try to give as much back to the community as possible by donating time to New York Cares taking kids from Queens to various fun and educational activities. I also dig cooking, good beer, and am addicted to TED.
