Carrino Joins WRL Web Team

The WRL Web Team announced today the hire of Michael Carrino as a Web Application Developer.

Carrino comes to WRL after working as a freelance contractor specializing in New Media, including a stint at the NASA Glenn Center, where he created web applications. His work at WRL will entail working on web site and application development using both proprietary and open source platform products.

The Bath Township resident is a 1986 graduate of the University of Akron, and since that time worked for both radio stations and advertising agencies. He was also one of the early adopters in getting customers to advertise and sell products on the World Wide Web.

"He brings a lot of experience in different areas to the table," said Dennis Warner, WRL's Internet Director. "The work he's done for us as a contractor has been right on the mark. We're really pleased that we could bring him in as a full-time employee."

On joining WRL, Carrino said, "WRL has a solid team of technically adept developers, plus excellent artists, writers and 3D modeling people to complement their application development. When I was asked to join the group, it took me all of 3 seconds to say "Yes". Two of them don’t count because I had to clear my throat."
