George Zabanah has been architecting and developing solutions commercially from start to finish for over 11 years. He has been programming since he was 11 (for over 25 years now!) using many different technologies (almost all Microsoft). George is proficient in many languages and employs best practices wherever possible using design patterns, .NET, XSLT, XML, Regular Expressions, various flavours of SQL (to name just a few). His favourite tools, however, are the whiteboard and Sparx Enterprise Architect/Powerpoint. Many waking moments have been spent by George thinking about solutions in his head (even while watching tv). His best moments are the "Eureka" moments when he wakes up from a good sleep (or after watching tv) to find that his latest challenge has been solved!
