Novi Java Champion – Victor Grazi

Imamo još jednog novog Java Championa, a to je Victor Grazi. Evo i članak Victor Grazi, Java Champion! (The Java Source). Prenosimo dio njegovog životopisa:

Grazi is a Java evangelist and serves on the Executive Committee of the Java Community Process, representing Credit Suisse – the first non-technology vendor on the JCP. He also arranges the NY Java SIG meetings at Credit Suisse’s New York campus each month, and he says it has been a valuable networking opportunity. He also is the spec lead for JSR 354, the Java Money and Currency API.

Grazi has been building real time financial systems in Java since JDK version 1.02! In 1996, the internet was just starting to happen, Grazi started a dot com called Supermarkets to Go, that provided an on-line shopping presence to supermarkets and grocers. Grazi wrote most of the code, which was a great opportunity for him to learn Java and UI development, as well as database management. Next, he went to work at Bank of NY building a trading system. He studied for Java certification, and he noted that getting his certification was a game changer because it helped him started to learn the nuances of the Java language. He has held other development positions, “You may have noticed that you don’t get as much junk mail from Citibank as you used to – that is thanks to one of my projects!” he told us. Grazi joined Credit Suisse in 2005 and is currently Vice President on the central architecture team.

Grazi is proud of his open source project, Java Concurrent Animated, a series of animations that visualize the functionality of the components in the java.util.concurrent library. “It has afforded me the opportunity to speak around the globe” and because of it, has discovered that he really enjoys doing public presentations.
