## BIO
Professional software developer for 23 years. Innovative, creative, **lightning fast** work. **Obsessed** with 100% customer satisfaction. Full rèsumè available upon request, summary follows.
Broad range of coding experience. Have designed and developed applications using a wide variety of platforms: everything from system-level coding in assembly language to n-tier business applications using Microsoft .NET and COM DNA technologies.
Most recent experience was redesigning a large sales order entry/reporting web site for a multi-million dollar marketing firm. Redesigned a simple, 2-tier ASP application to use a faster, more-efficient, more extensible 3-tier architecture. Customer is now able to add new reports and order entry modules in **two or three days**, as opposed to previous turn-around time of two to three **weeks**.
Other relevant experience:
* Did a stint as a telephone support technician in **Microsoft's ASP/ASP.NET support center**. Responsible for rapidly solving customer coding/functionality issues, including many critical uptime issues for Fortune 500 companies (cannot mention names due to Microsoft confidentiality agreement). Technologies used ran the entire gamut of Microsoft's web development technology products. Received extensive training in these products, from Microsoft, greately enhancing my knowledge of them.
* Designed and coded, a multi-tier learning management system for a company that provides custom CBT solutions to Fortune 500 companies. This system included a GUI client for designing and deploying CBT courses and tests, and an IIS-based web site for deploying content created by the GUI client. This software has been used to train employees for Krispy Kreme, Bank of America, Wackenhut, Firstar Bank, and many other large corporations.
* Worked with a team at Wachovia to streamline and extend an online banking services application for large commercial customers (including Lowes Home Improvement, Duke Power, etc.).
* Experience prior to 1999 available upon request, but includes everything from executive-level management positions in .com startups, to working as a toolkit designer and developer for world-renowned Turbopower Software.
Additionally, I own, code, and operate several e-commerce web sites built using Microsoft ASP.NET technologies, which I use as a test bed to keep myself up to date on all new Microsoft development technologies. Whenever a new technology becomes available, I use it and evaluate it in my own software first, before inflicting it on customers.
My development experience is broad and well-rounded. My knowledge of software design makes me especially effective at getting new applications out the door quickly. All my customers are 100% satisfied with my work, and I maintain relationships with all of them to this day.
