SUMMARY:

• A creative yet analytical, self - reliant staff member with excellent organizational, writing, and oral skills whose attention to detail is exemplified by a very unique combination of e-commerce/eBusiness Windows and web development, prototyping, programming and scripting; graphic design; print publishing; and assorted technology skills that are further underscored by a computer/network systems and accounting background. This combination highlights an understanding of the seemingly opposing forces of the strain-at-the-reigns sky's-the-limit passions of design and technology, to the constraints of bottom-line, budgets, and project and time management.
• An individual with solid senior experience leading teams and projects coupled with extensive hands-on programming skills. An individual that thrives on challenges, doesn't know the meaning of 9-to-5, is very comfortable with technology, multiple projects, multiple priorities, deadlines, and cross-organizational teams. An individual whose approach to tasks is to solve the problems and find a way to make things work. A leader capable of taking projects from inception through implementation.
• Position responsibilities and experiences… have included supervision and mentoring, prioritization and scheduling, development and testing, and deployment of both small and large-scale applications. Many projects involved the review of project proposals, evaluation of alternatives, and estimation of total costs associated with each alternative, whereas other experiences included managing assigned projects, the creation and maintenance of project plans, leading project meetings, preparing team and management communications so that all are appropriately informed of the project status.
• Project experiences… include concepts, prototypes, requirements, system architectures, and planning; GUI, code, and database design and modeling; release and version control; and OOD development and implementation of e-commerce, n-tier applications.
• Experiences follow the complete software development life cycle from requirements gathering through implementation, in creating new and enhancing existing Windows and web-based workflow applications. This includes the performance of business analysis on existing processes and design solutions aimed at streamlining those processes, eliminating non-value added steps, increasing the speed of throughput, and improving quality. Interfacing with application business owners and technical staff to gather the information necessary to implement high quality applications and troubleshoot problems with existing applications, is always an on-going activity that is augmented by establishing, participating in, and maintaining relationships with business units, internal customers and subject matter experts in order to remain appraised of strategic direction.
• Windows and Web technology experiences… include smart-clients/click-once, .NET, C#, Confidential, Silverlight, Windows Phone, WCF, XAML, XBAP, HTML 5, ASP.NET, ASP, XML, XSLT, XSD, ADO.NET, JavaScript, HTML, DHTML, SQL web services and more.
• Windows Applications and Website Development/Programming complete storyboarding and prototyping, scripting, design, coding, database and stored procedure development, and testing of a number of websites
• A number of different software applications were used to code, design, create, and assemble the various components of Windows and web applications.
• Project Management — involved in most aspects of researching, implementing, promoting, and managing various projects over approximately many years. Participated on project teams as both a member and a lead. Also worked on projects as the sole project member. These projects cover website development and application software projects, as well as a range of network and systems integration and support projects. They included the following activities: determination and management of time and cost budgets detailed requirements definition production schedules testing schedules implementation strategies and schedules maintenance and support strategies staffing supplier sourcing hardware analysis and recommendations promotional campaigns project tracking and status reporting problem analysis and resolution proposal authoring and presentation
