"I'm an IT professional with over 25 years experience in software development, product design, project engineering and architecture, and AI-assisted coding, as well as extensive management and leadership skills. I taught at the college level for 9 years at the University of Advancing Technology in Tempe, AZ where I not only taught over 30 classes, I developed the coursework and lessons myself.

As a software developer, I have a strong belief in the rigorous use of well-defined patterns and best practices for code readability; treat every code change as a message to a future developer (even if that's yourself). Well-structured code and applications pay strong dividends in the future when you have to change course or fix bugs.

As a tech leader, I have worked with teams of up to 30 direct reports and mentored hundreds of junior developers from fresh out of school to senior developer. I find the hidden skills that you have and bring them to a level that they continue to benefit your career and life for the future." less...
