Carl Thuringer

I'm a software craftsman. I lived in Japan for 8 months while working on my Japanese Language and Culture degree. I've also studied and worked in Journalism both freelance and at a Newspaper. I'm proficient in publishing and graphic design software and started my own Web design company. I am currently an apprentice at Chicago's awesomest Agile software company, Obtiva where I build on my self-taught programming skills and strive for mastery of Rails, Ruby and Javascript. I also have fun playing with new and exciting stuff like Node, JQuery Mobile and CoffeeScript.
