Scott Anguish

Scott Anguish started developing for the Macintosh in 1984. Upon seeing the NeXT development environment in 1992 he was hooked on the possibilities of a unified imaging model and a pure object-oriented system. In 1994, after several years of NeXT development, he created Stepwise, a portal for information related to NeXT technologies. Today, Stepwise serves as a hub for Apple's Mac OS X technology platform, as well as Cocoa and WebObjects development.

Scott is just wrapping up a four year position using Cocoa and WebObjects to build better technology for higher education at the Center for Educational Technology in Middlebury College. He is looking for an exciting opportunity in Cocoa development. - Resumé - email
