Issac has been involved in the Perl community for over 5 years.  Having been fascinated by the growing web since the early 90s, he decided to learn how it all worked.  Starting with basic HTML in 1997, he moved to working on some HTTP-related IETF standards in 1999-2000.  Around then he started to pick up Perl to use in basic CGI scripts.  From there, he quickly advanced to mod_perl and writing finely-tuned web applications.
Today, he is 23 and happily married, and runs his own company, Mirimar Networks, which specializes in web programming (lots of Perl!), hosting and design.
