## BIO

| **About me:**
I am a third year college student at St. Lawrence College - one of the most highly-respected technical colleges in Canada - am consistantly place in the top of my class, if not taking the top marks outright.
I am in the middle of a work placement programme with the Ministry of Health, Ontario, working simultaneously with the Application Architecture Division, and Small Systems Development ("small systems" being defined as "less than $500,000" within the Ontario government). I am in the process of developing an Application Inventory system, and re-working the existing Health Card and Driver's License issuing systems. My work will touch the lives of millions of Canadians every day.
I signed up with Rent A Coder so that I could use my skills at coding to earn extra money through college, or - even better - pay the rent. I have been coding since I was but nine, and am really going through college just to formalize my skills and get the diploma. I can already do 80% of the courseload.
Don't let my name put you off! "Static" is a pseudonym I've been using for years, and "Imperfexion" is just a fancy way of spelling my attitude towards coding and life. Far too many people approach coding with a haughty attitude, thinking they are above the bugs that plague other "mere mortals." This isn't so! *Everyone* is plauged by bugs and delays, especially those who don't plan for them and minimize their impact. I like my name. It keeps me humble, it keeps me honest, and it keep my projects high-quality.
