Web Application Architect - Resume & Portfolio

I am a web-based software engineer with twelve years of experience. I am an expert in architecting, developing, deploying, and maintaining web-based business and consumer applications.

One of my unique technical skills is that I am equally proficient in the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) and equivalent Windows stack (Windows Server, IIS, SQL Server, ASP.Net/C#/VB). Another unique skill I have is the ability to design user-friendly forms and interfaces.

As sole developer on many projects, I have designed numerous applications from concept to production, with knowledge in all necessary technical areas from the user interface to the back-end. I have contributed sophisticated functionality to existing applications. With excellent writing skills, I regularly flesh-out concepts into written specifications, prepare project proposals and quotes, and author technical articles. In my current roles, I also give technical direction to other developers.
