PROBLEM SOLVER I like to find solutions to problems. With 20+ years of IT experience in legal, insurance, and healthcare, I`ve been a CIO, support tech, network admin, business analyst, project manager and a software developer. Of all the things that I`ve done, I most enjoy building stuff, and so like being a software developer the most. I like to think regardless of the role, success comes down to being a good problem solver and ultimately, that’s what I work hard at. CONSULTANT Being happy with what you do is sharing what you know so I am a consultant to help find answers, achieve goals, and implement tech strategies. Not everyone may love tech like I do, but helping people get the best from technology is something I’m passionate about. People say that I have a good ability to communicate technical things at an audience appropriate level. I believe this comes from prioritizing people first, technology second. As a community volunteer and a public speaker, I am reminded that people are more important than things. SOFTWARE DEVELOPER Building software, solving problems and even fixing bugs can be fun. I develop software using C#, VB.NET, ASP, SQL, MySQL, PHP, SSRS, SSIS, SharePoint, TFS, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, MVC, JQuery, Bootstrap, AWS and Azure. I can work on a team or independently and can do maintenance programming and bug fixes or full stack development for the desktop, the web and mobile. Tools and code a well-rounded software developer does not make. It also means being able to communicate ideas well. It is important to me to use the right tool to solve a problem, to use design patterns, debug my own code, test what I build and know when to ask for help. It means writing code that others will have to see and it means I try to continually improve and learn something new every day. SUMMARY If you’d like an experienced software developer and consultant to help you solve a problem, please contact me. I’d like the opportunity to help…or if you’d like to talk about home brewing, that would be great too since I like a good beer!
