SUMMARY

A top manager, developer and author, I have extensive experience in software development and system architecture and am an expert in building and implementing a variety of globally-deployed platforms.  I have envisioned, designed, managed and implemented major award-winning software products and built and led innumerable development teams.  I am a proficient developer in C#, C++, Visual Basic, SQL Server, and object oriented techniques and take an entrepreneurial approach toward problem solving. I have written numerous books that teach hands-on application of leading-edge technology.

Self-directed and results-oriented, I have assumed end-to-end responsibility for implementing and deploying software solutions, including testing, training, and documentation.  For the duration of my career, I have been working directly with end-user customers ensuring that the delivered system exceeds their expectations and with development teams to significantly increase their effectiveness and productivity through training and mentoring. I have a “can do” attitude and thrive on meeting challenges.
