I live in the Boston area with my wonderful wife and two kids. I work as a software developer. I also work with wood and now that I have children I no longer feel silly playing with Legos, play dough, Geomags etc.<\/p>\n<p>I was born in Toronto, Canada but my family moved to Massachusetts when I was one. I Graduated from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst with a BS in Computer Systems Engineering in 1988 and have been developing software ever since. I currently work at Oracle by way of their acquiring BEA. I work on the Oracle Application Express (APEX) team.<\/p>\n<p>The thoughts, ideas, and views I express on my blog are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of my current employer, Oracle, or any previous employer.<\/p>\n<p>In my spare time I like to play with my kids, rock climb, inline skate, work with wood, build Lego MindStorms robots, read about new and interesting things, and visit friends.<\/p>\n<p>I can be contacted at <span>jjsnyders<\/span> <span>at<\/span> <span>rcn<span>.<span>com<\/span>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi I&#8217;m John Snyders and I&#8217;m all about designing and building things.
