We really like the internet. A lot.
Integrum is a close-knit, experienced, internet-savvy group that makes web applications emphasizing business value, community, user-experience satisfaction and standards via the latest technologies. We build for the internet because we like to and because we are good at it, it's that simple. These bios may or may not reflect reality. Give us a call if you want to get the real scoop.
The Integrum Team
Jade
Truly an inspiration to us all, Jade Meskill has overcome trials and tribulations most of us only read about in Harry Potter. Growing up on a small almond plantation in rural Pennsylvania, Meskill, the eldest of seventeen, learned young what it takes to be a leader. With just his hoe at his side, Meskill went on to receive the Outstanding Young Agriculturalist Award at the age of sixteen. When Meskill thought things couldn't get better, he literally fell head over heels in love with the most beautiful of the preacher's daughters. But papa wasn't no fool. And she'd never marry a farmer if he had any say in the matter.
It took everything Jade had to throw his hoe to the side, but he did, and with the strength of ten riding lawnmowers. He traded in his straw-brim hat for a finely gelled faux-hawk, his tractor for a Nissan Rogue, and found in the trash were countless posters of "American Gothic" and John Deere, replaced on the walls with David Heinemeier Hansson. In the end, our hero gets the girl and the employees of his dreams at Integrum Technologies. Who would have seen that coming?
Derek
Derek loves soccer. Thankfully, his teams always lose, so we don't have to hear about it much. He brings an amazing ability to solve problems to the Integrum team, able to look at a situation and almost immediately understand what needs to happen in order to make it fly.
Irish
Irish majored in Computer Science at Arizona State University once they refused repeated attempts to major in World of Warcraft. As Integrum's longest tenured employee Irish and his prehistoric stash of Dark Chocolate Raisins have written many lines of code. Unfortunately we're not sure how much was written by Irish and how much by the Raisins.
Young
Chris Young is now an old-timer in the Ruby on Rails community - that's right, he has been doing Ruby for two years and 8 months (as of 1/1/2009). For 10 years before that, Chris was a Microsoft Developer. Chris gets teased because he was a Microsoft Developer and because he is old. Chris says that this is as mean as throwing rocks at a horse. Sometimes we tease him too much and it makes him cry, which is really funny - seeing a grown man cry.
Curtis M
Curtis joined the Integrum team in January '08 when he fell in love with us after acting as a contractor for 4 months. He holds a BS from University of Arizona and a MS from Cal State - both of those in Computer Science. So he's smart; and we like him hanging around.
Jason
"The New Guy" - originally schooled in design from The University of Arizona, Jason now implements the "prettying up" with mad HTML and CSS skills. Front end development is a passion of his as he always tries to find new and exciting ways of doing things.
Chris C.
Desensitized to death at a very young age in the aftermath of unbounded power, Chandler studied under the likes of Professor Charles Xavier. As well as being an accomplished Ninja, he is completely impervious to pain and is very highly trained in the subtle art of telekinesis. He has a weakness for designer soap and his favorite food is freshly-caught salmon, which he captures using his mind alone. He occasionally enjoys Ruby on Rails development.
Matthew C.
Matthew is currently attending Arizona State University working towards a BS in Computer Science. His knowledge compared to the rest of the Integrum crew gets him the ever so glamorous title of "Noob". He aspires to one day graduate, not only from college but, from his Noob status to something a bit more respected.
Steve S.
Steve is a creative, driven, passionate and diverse individual. He's all about creativity, having fun, and exceeding expectations. Although Steve has many unique and exceptional abilities, chief among them is the ability to envision simple and pragmatic web solutions and execute the transition from vision to reality. He approaches technology problems from the human perspective, architecting and implementing technology products that emphasize intuitiveness, user value, and simplicity over complexity or technological prowess. He's also a pretty good foosball player.
Jason C.
Jason is a big time 'idea guy,' but he is also the do-it-yourself type. After two years in the world of online marketing, he joined Integrum in order to learn the skills to bring some of his web application ideas into existence quickly, while being sure they are well built. His goals are to constantly improve his web development skills while creating sites with amazing functionality for clients (and as time goes on, for himself).
- Enigma
Jay
Jay's personal motto is to be vicariously lazy: he believes he can make everyone's lives easier through software development. Though he enjoys coding in pure Ruby, his allergy to configuration files led him to Rails.
Clayton
Named after the Lone Ranger himself, Clayton traded in his punk band in high school for punk programming at Integrum. His high school sweetheart wife is helping him daily recover from his days as a PHP/MySQL developer before finding his niche here. A true old school Mac user (OS 6 baby!) he keeps the political discussions running and laughing with plenty of bad puns and one-liners.
Conrey
Chris Conrey brings Integrum a louder voice to shout their message. And loud is the key word. A geek at heart through years of other sales jobs, Conrey found a home at Integrum where his jokes will be understood by fellow geeks and he can truly be appreciated. Conrey brings many skills to the table to help the team get the projects to the clients on time. He's also always willing to take another loss to his darts game history.
