Yo, Sam needs a gig.

Anyone who's in need of a short time paid programming gig or internship:

I met Sam a few weeks ago at the Geek Dinner and liked him tremendously. Sam's going to be doing some work for Nimble but he's got a few hours here and there that he wants to put to use.

Sam's still over there at Neumont but he's a motivated short-hair and would like to make a little geld during his breaks. I've included his resume and contact info below so take a look.
