I am familiar with: GIT, PHP, HTML, Database Systems (SQLite, MySQL, Postgres), virualenv, MVC design paradigm, OAuth2.0, ssl, linux, bash, also have good experience with Adobe Photoshop.
I have a worked on quite much Web applications with complete frontend UI and backend management. I have an Amazon AWS account, and access to a VPS to deploy apps for demonstration.
