Biography
I am focused on the timely release and delivery of high quality software products and thoroughly grounded in the full software development lifecycle. I enjoy self-organized teams of developers and tackle all aspects of product development. I find meeting and working with customers especially rewarding.
The goals I set for myself are outside my comfort zone. This leads to continuous improvement, new knowledge and skills, and the ability to apply them to the development process.
I have been in the software development business for 15+ years, currently focused on Java and Java web applications on embedded devices used for remote sensing.
