He is an avid Pomodoro Technique Practitioner and makes every attempt to learn a new programming language every year. For downtime, he enjoys reading, swimming, Legos, football, and barbecuing.
Presentations
Scala Koans - A New & Fun Way to Learn Scala (Bring a Laptop)
Have you looked into Scala? Scala is a new object-functional JVM language. It is statically typed and type inferred. It is multi-paradigm and supports both object oriented and functional programming. And it happens to be my favorite programming language.
If you are interested in Scala, how you are planning to learn Scala? You probably are going to pick up a book or two and follow through some examples. And hopefully some point down the line you will learn the language, its syntax and if you get excited enough maybe build large applications using it. But what if I tell you that there is a better path to enlightenment in order to learn Scala?

Set your clocks, the Java 8 Date/Time API is here.
Finally, the Java 8 Date Time API will be in our grasps and now we will celebrate gleefully in the streets! ISO8601 and UTC standards! Immutability! Time to set attention to stun as this presentation will cover all the goods about the new Date/Time API that makes Java programming safe.
Making Java Bearable with Guava (2014 Edition)
This presentation covers the Guava library developed by Google (http://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/). Guava provides collection extensions to the Java Collection API and, along with this, a cornucopia of time-saving utilities that bring Java as close as possible to some of the more functional and dynamic language competitors like Scala, Ruby, and Clojure.
