Mini Bio, last updated September 2012

David Perit is a student at Seneca, in the CPA program.

I worked for the Center for Development of Open Technology (CDOT) at Seneca@York for 16 months on various projects including Uprooted at http://turtlesback.ca/creationgames/. 4 of those months were spent working on the Gladius game engine at Mozilla Toronto with Mozilla employees. Some of my work on it can be seen at http://dperit.github.com/

At one point he was a Computer Science student at the University of Waterloo, before he realized that Computer Science isn't the right program for learning software development. After spending a bunch of time at Sun Life writing documentation for the Configuration Management team, he moved to Toronto and started attending the CPA program, which is infinitely better for him than Computer Science was.

Before he was a Computer Science student, he worked at RWDI in Guelph on the internal software team, maintaining and updating their intranet, as well as designing and writing a complete program for an external client over the course of 4 months. He acquired around a year of experience working with the .NET framework and C#, spread between versions 1.1 and 2.0 of the framework. He also acquired a bunch of experience with MS-SQL.
