Speakers Bio:

James Ward is a Technical Evangelist for Flex at Adobe and Adobe’s JCP
representative to JSR 286, 299, and 301. Much like his love for climbing
mountains he enjoys programming because it provides endless new discoveries,
elegant workarounds, summits and valleys. His adventures in climbing have
taken him many places. Likewise, technology has brought him many adventures,
including: Pascal and Assembly back in the early 90’s; Perl, HTML, and
JavaScript in the mid 90’s; then Java and many of it’s frameworks beginning in
the late 90’s. Today he primarily uses Flex to build beautiful front-ends for
Java based back-ends. Prior to Adobe, James built a rich marketing and
customer service portal for Pillar Data Systems.
