I am a seasoned full-stack developer, IT consultant, and project leader with decades of hands-on experience designing, building, and deploying complete web- and database-driven systems. My work spans the full software development lifecycle—from initial client engagement and requirements analysis through architecture, coding, testing, training, and deployment. I am proficient in HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, PHP, Python, MySQL, Java, and modern development frameworks, and I am comfortable working across Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS environments. In addition to development, I bring strong leadership and instructional experience. I hold a BS in Information Technology with a specialization in PMI Project Management (graduated cum laude), have served as an adjunct professor at vocational, two-year, and four-year institutions, and have trained professionals in advanced database design, application development, and enterprise productivity systems. I am also the holder of a patented smartphone-based stock and options trading system. What distinguishes me is the combination of long-term real-world IT experience, formal project management discipline, and the ability to translate complex technical requirements into practical, reliable solutions. I work comfortably as both strategist and hands-on builder—leading projects when needed, mentoring teams, and writing production-ready code myself.
