Python Class Oct 4 in San Francisco, CA
Thank you for your interest in Python Fundamentals Training Course.
[top] Who is teaching this class?
Simeon Franklin has been been writing software since 1999 using Perl, VB, Delphi and PHP. Simeon has been writing dynamic web applications since 2001. He used several different technologies in that time: classic ASP pages and CGI back when that was state of the art and then PHP for about 6 years. He started out working for a small Web Development shop in downtown Modesto. After a few years of growth the company was acquired by a local ISP and Simeon became the Lead Developer in their Web Division.
In this phase of his career Simeon was fairly prolific - turning out many well-used sites in addition to being the primary developer of an in-house CMS and the general web-tech goto guy for three firms in succession.
In 2008 after working as the lead developer for a web design firm he discovered Python and liked it so much he quit his job to use it. Since then he has worked for companies writing large data processing and warehousing applications in Python and Django. He participates in the Python Community in the Bay Area and is a moderator of the oldest Bay Area Python Interest Group (Baypiggies) which is held at Google and Symantec each month.
