History
I currently work for Mochi Media. I have used the Jabber/XMPP protocol for work and play since 2000. My use of XMPP started with various projects for the Medical University of South Carolina, contracts, Chesspark, and Collecta. These projects also allowed for contribution back to the XMPP community, ranging from small bug fixes, for different clients and servers, to some open source projects that I list below.

Current Projects

 * My projects
 * Punjab - BOSH connection manager


 * Projects I contribute to.
 * Strophe - XMPP library for different languages

Older Projects

 * Speeqe - Simple Web based MUC Client
 * Palaver - MUC component
 * Jabber Google Map - A google map for viewing XMPP presence status.
 * Sluice - A workflow builder and manager.
 * PCJBot - A MUC Bot

Why am I applying?
As we know, XMPP solves a good deal of real time messaging and presence problems. I have used it in many ways, from the normal instant message solutions, to business applications and data transfer, to games like Chesspark. I try to contribute to open source applications that I use in my projects. Any time I get the chance to promote XMPP, I take it! I would also like to increase my contribution to the official XMPP community and being a member facilitates that.
