PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

BUILT TO DELIVER.

Experience spanning software development, customer-facing implementations, business operations, sales, and training.

TECHNOLOGY & IMPLEMENTATION

Systems that actually work.

My technical background includes VB.NET, SQL, ASP/JavaScript, ETL and data integration, application support, and business systems.

At Spud Software, I worked on customer-facing point-of-sale implementations. At MMP, I handled hardware and software implementations and post-implementation support. My work has also included software development in a specialty pharmacy environment with sensitive healthcare data.

What connects these roles is the need to translate requirements into usable solutions—and support them after the initial launch.
