Intro:

I get it done - any and all aspects of IT for over ten years. I do what I love because of passion, ambition and pride in my work. My ideal work scenario is being on the cutting edge of technology to turn a concept into a finished tangible product. Having to learn new skills to accomplish tasks is a benefit to me, not a task.

Expertise:

I specialize in creating large sites, Search engines, data mining and recruiting. I have government experience (creating and maintaining 12 government LMI sites). I am currently a government employee for Washington State, as an ITS5.  I attended classes at Lakehurst Naval Base. I developed a network of Verifone terminals for the Union, NJ SID that is still in use today (over 10 years later). I created an ecommerce site for the Lockheed employee recreation department. I have experience managing 4 other developers and getting goals accomplished, on time and under budget.


Ready & Able:

I have my own personal servers, high end systems, software and licenses to use for development and testing. I keep up with current technology and can keep you advised of the latest and greatest as well as planning upgrade paths. A good example of my passion for programming: My hobby site (a social networking site) has had over 25 million hits. This site uses a CMS platform that I developed from scratch and released as open source.  


I can write programs for:

  • Desktop computers.
  • Servers standard (IIS, FTP, SMTP,etc) and custom developed ones.
  • Mobile platforms.
  • Embedded systems.
  • Windows Mobile Devices.
  • Android based devices.
  • Cell phone accessible sites.
  • ICU's (Parallax & NetDuino).
  • Verifone Tranz credit card terminals (TCL).
  • x10 Home automation and security systems.



I can build/setup/handle:
  • Desktops & Servers.
  • Networks, small medium and enterprise class.
  • Diagnose Hardware Faults.
  • Build Prototypes (Wood, plastic, metal, foam).
  • Weld/Solder.
  • Build machinery.



Simply put:
 It would be nearly impossible to find someone with the broad level of experience and knowledge that I bring with me.
