Hello!

Hi, my name is Scott Blaine. Welcome to my website! I was a project manager for 6 years before I decided to join the dark side and become a programmer.

I love helping people solve problems. Sometimes I do that with the applied use of technology. Sometimes it's just by talking through their processes and seeing where we can improve or remove a few steps.

I have a day job as a software engineer and in the off hours I do some consulting, usually on web applications. If you'd like to talk about this please send me an email. I would love to chat.
