Adam Horton

Adam Horton is an avid retro gamer as well as a creator, destroyer, and rebuilder of all things Web, computing, and gaming. He started his career as a firmware developer for the high-end Superdome server division at Hewlett Packard. There, the JavaScript and C he wrought directed the power, cooling, health, and configuration of those behemoth devices. Since then, he has been a web developer for PayPal, utilizing cross-domain JavaScript techniques with an emphasis on user identity. Lately, at ESO Solutions, he's a lead JavaScript developer for next-generation, prehospital electronic health record (EHR) field collection applications.

Adam believes in an inclusive, ubiquitous, and open Web. He values pragmatism and practice over dogma in the design and implementation of computing applications and education.
