Ryan Parman
Geek. Writer. Music Lover.
Hi, my name is Ryan. I live near Seattle where I'm a Senior Full-Stack Engineer for WePay. In my spare time I goof around with my kids, watch movies, listen to music, cook, blog, and write software that benefits the entire web community. I created SimplePie and AWS SDK for PHP, and added PHP support to AWS Elastic Beanstalk. I'm passionate about UX. I value honesty, respect, passion, and being genuine. I believe in making tomorrow a better place than today. Formerly: Amazon Web Services, Yahoo!, Deem and Digital Impact.
