Web Applications - Technical Solutions
Hello! I'm Matt Salamon, a technical solutions expert with over 15 years of professional experience specializing in data protection, system administration, and web applications development. I currently work for Kaplan University as a technology architect overseeing data protection for the enterprise as a member of the desktop engineering team.
I'm interested in profesional software applications development and enterprise systems administration. I also enjoy tutoring high school and college students in mathematics. I live with my wife and kids in central florida. When I'm not working on technologies, I like to play tennis, teach my kids stuff, ride motorcycles, and fly airplanes.
I built this web application using Ruby on Rails. It is powered by a PostgreSQL database for the backend. A nice simple beer review site for us beer enthusiasts to share our thoughts on the latest beer trends.
Restful Crud allows users and administrators of the site to create/update/delete their posts.
This is another Ruby on Rails site I built for employees to safely and anonymously air their concerns-or positive feedback- regarding day to day operations and long term team goals.
Now is a great time for web development-with front end platforms like Bootstrap, Ember, Foundation, Angular, powerful tools like Javascript/jQuery, CSS3, HTML5, and back-end frameworks like Node, Express, RoR, and PHP, API and SDK from Google-- I've worked extensively with all of them and look forward to learning and doing more!
I got my MCTS in 2011. I work with microsoft products including OS, ASP.NET, and most of all, powershell!

I built this android adaptation of the classic word game using java and google android SDK in the eclipse IDE.
Interface is smooth and east to use- enter in the words and watch the story come to life.
I added in the ability to save the story and share it via social media.
I built this golf score card for android using java and google android SDK in the eclipse IDE.
The idea was to replace the old pencil and scorecard with an easy to use mobile app.There are much better ones out there-but this one is simple and fun to use. Score in relation to par is given in parenthesis.
