Starting in August I will be working at the Politico.  I'm not changing professions -- they are not hiring me for my political "insight" -- but rather as a Senior ColdFusion Developer. I'm excited to join their talented and large team to work on Politico.com and and their other sites.  For a start its my first exposure to really popular sites, in March Politico had 1.8 million visitors, and that brings about different challenges.  There is also a new site called tbd.com which is going to be released soon.

I've enjoyed my time in my current position at WebFirst.  During this time I have launched my first ColdFusion 9 and ORM application, my first Flex/Air talking to ColdFusion application and one in the wings.

This will be the first time since 2003 that I won't be able to walk to work.  Politico's offices are in Rosslyn, VA and a whopping 4 miles from my house in Washington, DC!  While I won't be able to walk I generally ride my bike and am looking forward to some slightly longer rides along the Mall and across the Potomac every day.
