Who: David Engel started his career as a .NET developer, but has primarily been a PHP developer since taking up with Tipping Canoe in 2007 where he helped build web-based consumer-driven applications on the LAMP stack. Currently David works in applications development for Maxim Truck & Trailer building internal and external applications in both PHP and .NET. David holds a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Computer Engineering from the University of Manitoba.

Feel free to stick around after the presentation, however, as some of us like to carry our discussions over to King Street for refreshments.
