Work Life & Accomplishments

Rather than bore you with the incredibly silly "resume page" (after all, how many recruiters really visit your web site? And, more importantly, who's going to hire a guy named "DarkDan?") I thought I'd create something a little different. This page will give you a better feeling of what I do, and what I've done. Enjoy
