Available to hire
I am a results-driven Software Engineering Consultant with over 25 years of experience specializing in web development using ASP.NET Core, MVC, and Web API. I excel in creating dynamic user interfaces with Vue.js, React, jQuery, and JavaScript, and I have a strong background in SQL data modeling, queries, and troubleshooting across multiple technologies. I am a creative problem solver who applies the strangler pattern to safely and systematically rewrite legacy monolithic codebases. I am also comfortable as an undaunted greenfield architect, capable of building a full web experience from design to deployment from scratch.
Beyond full-stack development, I am knowledgeable in Azure deployments including serverless functions, app services, and setting up continuous integration and deployment with DevOps. I also have experience with DNS work, hosting provisioning, and IIS setup. I am organized and conscientious, employing Scrum skills to stay on task and keep team members and stakeholders informed. As an excellent communicator, I strive to understand problems fully and raise issues when necessary. I work well independently or within teams of various sizes.
