Thanks Milica Maksimović ! That's good stuff!

Hey everyone! I'm Noah, currently the Director of Development for a company creating an electronic medical record for behavioral health providers. I run the Idaho-PHP user group in Boise, and I like to volunteer with our local schools and colleges to help teach young people technical-type things. Though I'm not a fitness bro, I try to make it to the gym 5 times a week, and I drink enough coffee for me and the dog. My favorite thing to do is to alternate weekends between hanging out at home on the weekend with my wife and kids, and going out and finding fun things to do with them.

We've created a suite of tools for behavioral health providers, therapeutic schools, and residential care centers using PHP and are very happy with the results. Ours is certainly not the largest service online, serving healthcare or otherwise, but we do have a respectable customer base with 10's of thousands of users. Each year, our software allows our users to provide care and service the business activities for around a million patients, which is exciting and terrifying at the same time.

At the office, we're ramping up work on a new project for behavioral health providers to run their practice and increase engagement with patients and their families. At home, I'm continuing to work on my family organization app (Honeys Household). This month, I'm adding the family calendar and continuing to add to the new user help documentation for the budgeting module.

Quick plug to write a test first, then do the refactor according to your schedule. It's such a common feeling to want to fix the code while you're refactoring it, but that's often a bad idea. Test it first, then refactor it in place (without changing the outcome), then work on fixing it later.
