I am a forward thinking charismatic Software Architect that loves technology and working with software teams who are building collaborative, cutting edge and disruptive web-based software focused on enabling, empowering and encouraging people to use the Internet. I have expertise in creating order out of chaos, applying best practices, and rapidly completing complex web applications. I have a special skill of anticipating and resolving problems before they happen. I have the most success working as a part of a small focused team that align their energy with business requirements. Most recently I have been responsible for designing, building and deploying several complete Software as a Service (SaaS) web applications.
I Simplify, Organize and Finish things.
I am a developer at heart with the instincts and background of a enterprise architect. I am a strategic thinker that considers the big picture before implementing a technical solution. I have been successful at translating business needs into flexible and adaptable technical solutions in both enterprise and startup environments.
