Hello, I'm Casper Fabricius. I have developed for the web for 10 years, and have been enjoying Ruby on Rails for the past 5.
My experience covers communities, shopping solutions, multi-language sites, heavy back-end lifting and a wide selection of more traditional websites. I like to integrate Ruby with Java and .NET through JRuby and IronRuby when it makes sense.

I live in Copenhagen, Denmark, where I work for a fantastic company: Podio. I do not currently take on freelance assignments.
