Hi!

I'm Julie.

My LinkedIn and Careers 2.0 profiles will lead you to believe I have a lot of experience working in web-based technologies, and it's true! I build things, and I build teams, and I build teams who build things (the last one is my favorite).

I've recently finished up the 2nd edition of Sams Teach Yourself HTML, CSS, & JavaScript All-in-One, which will be available from bookstores in October 2014. If I had my druthers and a gajillion dollars, I'd be camping across the country with not a care in the world, but I lack a gajillion dollars. In the meantime, I'm the the Software Engineering Manager at B-Line Medical.

I'm always happy to do some consulting for small companies and organizations, even if it's just a phone call to chat about things (that is why I am not rich). My focus is on software development and/or UX team construction and management, reviewing and resetting technical infrastructure, shepherding folks through the Agile development process, and just generally helping people figure out how to scale technology, processes, and teams. You can reach me via LinkedIn or @jcmeloni.

Oh right, I've also written some books over the last fifteen years or so; some people like them, some people don't, some people really don't, and that's ok. The ones listed below are the most recent and most popular.
