Hi.

I'm Samir.

So?

Hey, you wandered over here.

Oh, yeah. So who are you, exactly?

Samir Talwar. I'm a software developer in London, England, working at TIM Group. I make things. Often websites.

Like what?

My latest project is eventual.ly. It's a simple webapp that helps you use Twitter to organise real-world events. Incidentally, you should totally follow me on Twitter.

Cool. What else?

I'm interested in web development, functional programming, simple communication mechanisms and plugging things together. My GitHub page has a few things I've been working on.

So you're a hacker.

Kinda. I also like teaching people. I've run a few workshops and sessions in tandem with the London Software Craftsmanship meetup group, and I'm on the associates committee.

Where did you learn all this?

I learnt a lot at university. I got my masters from Imperial College London in Computing. A lot of it is self-taught though. I've spent a lot of time before, during and after university teaching myself, mostly through online materials.

You seem like a nice guy. I'd like to talk to you.

Cool. My phone number's +44 (0) 7809 618 946. You can email me at samir@noodlesandwich.com.

You seem like a smart guy. I'd like to hire you.

Alrighty then. If you like, you can take a look at my CV. Contact details are up above.
