Peter Armstrong

I have been developing rich client applications for over 7 years and have worked with Flex full-time since July 2004, including being part of the team that won the 2006 Adobe MAX Award for RIA/Web Development. Before becoming a Flex developer, I was a Java Swing developer for a Silicon Valley BPM startup. On the Ruby on Rails side, I have been tracking Rails since mid-2005 and am the organizer of The Vancouver Ruby/Rails Meetup group.

I am also a frequent speaker on using Flex and Rails together, including presentations at The Vancouver Flash/Flex Meetup, a RailsConf 2007 BOF, The Vancouver RIA Developer Camp, Rails to Italy in Pisa and acts_as_conference in Florida. I live in the Vancouver, BC area and am the founder of Ruboss Technology Corporation (http://ruboss.com), a software development and consulting company focused on Adobe Flex, Adobe AIR and Ruby on Rails.

When I'm not coding, writing, reading or being a husband and dad, I like to snowboard and play computer games.
