Professional bio…

Josh first got into web development back in 2005 when his dad got him his first book on HTML, Maran Graphics HTML In an Instant, from then on he was hooked on the wonders, intricacies, and challenges provided by the world wide web. He started out the old fashioned way using a basic text editor (Notepad) for all of his coding, and JASC Paint Shop Pro (now Corel Paint Shop Pro), and GIMP for his image editing needs. Since then the times, code, standards, software, and opportunities have changed and expanded. In 2007 he got his first taste of Linux in the flavor of SUSE 9.0 and was then introduced to the world of Open Source.
