I'm a highly skilled python programmer that takes on side jobs for the challenge.  I like to work on small, one-off projects that deal with data transformation/automation/extraction.  I'm usually brought in to solve problems that others have failed -- or that have been poorly implemented.  My code is typically small, well documented, but sometimes deceptively complex.   I will typically just solve the problem, and if it's something that needs to be done frequently, I can optimize it for multi-threading or better optimization at customer request.

Because I do this for fun, I'm somewhat picky on my jobs. 

Projects I enjoy:

• Data Transformation
• Data Extraction
• Data Automation
• Projects where others have failed

Projects I avoid:

• Web Projects
• UI Projects
• Critical Turnaround.  I'll do them, but my rate is way up there if you do.
• Projects working with binary data.  I'll also do these, but that's not my forte, so your money may be better spent elsewhere.
