Tim Poulsen, President,
Skypanther Studios, Inc. was formed in 2003 to provide custom web development and hosting services to small businesses, environmental groups, and individuals. Clients have ranged from individual musicians, environmental groups, to large corporations. Skypanther maintains FestOS™, the "festival operating system," an open-source specialty content management system.
Owner and lead developer Tim Poulsen has been "working the web" for nearly two decades (ouch!). I've worked in all aspects of computing, from stringing network cabling to
managing networks and systems, training in classroom and online settings, and writing books, magazine articles, and numerous training courses. I have developed all of the web sites for Skypanther customers. I select the right tool for the job, but favor open source tools, including PHP, MySQL, Apache, and jQuery.
Tim is happily married with three beautiful children who keep his non-work hours filled to overflowing. I'm an Assistant Scoutmaster for Boy Scout Troop 273. I wish I could spend more time and money restoring our 1890s-vintage Victorian home. I enjoy woodworking, amateur astronomy, and birdwatching. And I love combining my "geeky" skills with my hobbies: like setting up a live web cam to watch the bluebirds nest in one of our nest boxes; or writing a program to send myself twitter updates hourly with our weather station's stats.
I earned the rank of black belt in Shorin Ryu karate in 2008 and continue to train actively. I teach classes whenever Sensei asks.
