Month ago trial period in Lana Pro company was finished. Today I’m working on large corporate application (ASP.NET, MSSQL) in a professional team, and I have excellent conditions. I’ve started to learn English in International House.

At leisure I develop a bulletin board for a site www.ttki.ru. PHP5 and MySql 4.1 are used for development, and also Smarty template engine helps to separate code and design. An approximate development time – one week.
