Hello, my name is Joshua Thompson. You may see me around the net using the name Schmalls. I graduated from The University of Tulsa with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. Since graduation I have been working at MIRATECH Corporation in Tulsa. I worked as a Design Engineer for a year (using my degree), but have since switched to the role of Software Engineer. In this position I am solely responsible for our online engineering sizing program. It is written in ASP.NET with C#, and uses a lot of stored procedures on the SQL Server database.

I am also a fan of the open source community. My preferred language in my free time is PHP. It was the first language in which I did any real programming.
