Summary

I have 25+ years of experience in software development. I’ve worked with large organization like the Air Force, AT&T, Kaiser Permanente, Jeffco Public Schools, Dell, 3M, JCPenny, and TXU, and I’ve done a lot of work with medium-sized companies as well. I’m used to fast paced coding, changing requirements, and high expectations. I can run the whole project, manage the development team, or just roll up my sleeves and be an individual contributor.

As a recognized leader in hiring, retaining, and managing high performing software development teams, I've has been quoted in Forbes, Inc., CIO, InformationWeek, Network World, IT World, U.S. News and World Report, USA Today, Reader's Digest, The Seattle Times, and more.

My latest favorite tools are C#, ASP.NET Core, JavaScript, webpack, VueJS, React, NUnit, and Jest. I've been using Azure DevOps, GitHub, Azure, Kanban Flow, and Slack to lead and manage development teams.
