Bigchalk.com   •New York, NY  
•Director of Development  
•April 2000 - April 2001
I was in charge of technical services for HomeworkCentral.com as it merged with
other top educational sites to form third largest educational portal site:
Bigchalk.com. Mentored and headed young team, pulling together existing resources
to form a talent pool in New York office. I reported directly to Bigchalk’s CTO.

Initially I was tasked with integrating HomeWorkCentral into the portal.
Converted neural network based in proprietary Delphi data-entry program and its
distributed IIS / SQL7 web application front-end to WebObjects / JAVA / Oracle
environment. Indexing and high availability of network was facilitated by
dispersing data through DTS, SQL-loader, and Thunderstone. Expanded the
Thunderstone search engine and developed key-wording applications to meta-tag all
content and improve search accuracy. We developed a multi-purpose correlation
engine that successfully absorbed the full SGML cache of World Book’s
Encyclopedia into neural network. Later we extended the engine to pin content to
state standards by C++ based COM components interfacing MediaSeek’s ExploraSource
through XML/XSL.
My role expanded into and evaluating and integrating co-branded or partnered
projects. Utilizing a custom EJB single-registration application interfaced by a
WebObjects framework performed necessary authentication to partners such as
BlackBoard and GreaterGood.com. My team also produced a data-driven Flash and
Real-audio educational game, the “Sounds of History”, in conjunction with the
Smithsonian Institution. The game was served by JSP/Oracle through JavaBeans
served by J-run on Sun-Solaris server.
Bigchalk was sold to ProQuest but the flexible object oriented structure we
worked to established continues to be used as the backbone of several nationally
used subscription research services.
