Currently serving as Developer III at Hyland Software, I have successfully orchestrated the transformation of legacy C++, Java, and Backbone.js systems into cutting-edge Angular cloud applications, consistently delivering significant performance improvements.

⚔️

My technical mastery spans the complete development spectrum—from crafting intuitive Angular and React frontends to architecting robust .NET Core and Node.js backends, complemented by deep expertise in Azure and AWS cloud platforms. I have proven my leadership mettle by guiding teams of skilled developers and implementing sophisticated CI/CD pipelines that significantly boost productivity.

⚔️

Beyond my enterprise role, I serve select clients through strategic freelance partnerships, including recent work with Skulicity where I applied my expertise to enhance their platform capabilities. This dual perspective—combining enterprise-grade experience with agile freelance execution—allows me to deliver solutions that meet the highest professional standards.

⚔️

Armed with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Western Oregon University, I combine academic rigor with practical wisdom gained through countless battles against complex technical challenges. My philosophy centers on forging robust, testable code that delivers exceptional user experiences while maintaining the highest standards of quality and performance.

⚔️

From my stronghold in Oregon, United States, I serve clients across the globe, bringing enterprise-grade expertise to projects of every scale.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from clients about development process, quality, and collaboration.
If you have a question not covered here, feel free to reach out!

Project timelines vary based on complexity, but I believe in setting realistic expectations from the start. A simple website might take 2-3 weeks, while a complex enterprise application could take 2-3 months. I work freelance in the evenings with a maximum of 30 hours per week split between active clients, so timelines are planned accordingly. I always provide detailed project estimates and keep clients updated on progress throughout the development process.

I follow SOLID principles and clean code practices that I've refined over 8 years of development. Every project includes comprehensive testing, code reviews, and documentation. I use modern testing frameworks and maintain high code coverage to ensure your application is reliable, maintainable, and scalable.

Absolutely! I have extensive experience modernizing legacy systems and working with existing codebases. Whether it's refactoring old code, adding new features, or migrating to modern technologies, I approach each project with respect for the existing work while identifying opportunities for improvement. Recently, I've worked with clients like Skulicity to enhance their existing platforms and integrate new features seamlessly.

Clear communication is essential for project success. I provide regular updates, use project management tools for transparency, and am available for scheduled calls or messages during evening hours when I work on freelance projects. I believe in keeping clients informed without overwhelming them, and I'm always happy to explain technical concepts in accessible terms.

I specialize in modern full-stack development with Angular, React, .NET Core, Node.js, Next.js, Nest.js, Ionic, and cloud technologies. However, I'm always learning and adapting to new technologies. If your project requires a specific tech stack I'm not familiar with, I'll be honest about the learning curve and timeline adjustments needed.

Change is a natural part of software development, and I plan for it. I maintain flexible project structures and when requirements change, we'll discuss the impact on timeline and budget openly. I'll work with you to find the best path forward that serves your business goals.

Yes! I believe in empowering clients to understand and maintain their systems. I provide comprehensive documentation, user guides, and can offer training sessions for your team. Knowledge transfer is an important part of every project's success.

Testing is integral to my development process, not an afterthought. I implement unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end testing as appropriate for each project. This approach, developed over years of experience, ensures your application works reliably and can be confidently updated in the future.

I provide transparent, fair pricing based on project scope and complexity. I offer both fixed-price and hourly arrangements depending on what works best for your project. I believe in honest estimates and will always communicate if scope changes affect the budget.

Absolutely! I enjoy collaborating with other developers and can seamlessly integrate with your existing team. Whether you need additional capacity, specialized expertise, or leadership on specific initiatives, I adapt my working style to complement your team's processes and culture. My recent work with Skulicity involved collaborating closely with their development team to deliver cohesive solutions that aligned with their existing architecture and workflows.

That's perfectly fine! I work with many non-technical clients and pride myself on explaining complex concepts in simple terms. I'll keep you informed about progress, decisions, and any issues that arise, always ensuring you feel confident about your project's direction.
