... is dedicated to the development of highly usable, highly maintainable yet innovative web sites, web and desktop applications, as well as robust server side components.

I specialize in ASP.NET, C#, SQL Server 2000-2005 solutions, and have been developing primarily in this platform for the last eight years. I have also developed in VB6, VB.NET, MySQL, Delphi, C++, C, pascal, and various other languages and databases. Our development approach is simple: Gather requirements, define a useful subset of the requirements for a first development iteration, develop it under conditions of maximum transparency to the client, sign off, reevaluate requirements: repeat until complete. If you'd like to get into contact with me, feel free to send me an email.

Most of my projects over the years have been internal applications, and are unfortunately unavailable for viewing. Below are a few samples from externally accessable sites.

TaskStat

This application is primarily a web based project management tool. It is being developed in-house and will provide more transparency to our clients.
  

CarrieKDesigns.com

This website is a simple gallery for a hand crafted jewelry designer.

JetBlue Airways

At Jetblue Airways my primary projects were performance analysis software, a baggage hadling intranet site and other internal applications. I also was part of the team that maintained and extened the customer facing website which was based on a constantly changing third party engine, "Open Skies".

Speedle

Speedle tallied all the e-mails that traveled through its system via an "email this" widget and internet explorer plug-in; anonymous totals were counted and ranked, and the results displayed in Speedle charts which were constantly updated snapshots of what people were sharing online.
  

We can perform provide full life cycle development or step in at any stage of the process to bring a project to a successfull conclusion.

Analysis

We will work with you to gather requirements from project stakeholders, end users and support personell, analyse your business needs, and provide a range of solution options.

Designing the User Experience

Using the information gathered during analysis we will generate an inovative yet highly useable user interface implemented, where indicated, with the latest CSS, AJAX and Silverlight technologies.

Middle-Tier and Data-Layer Achitecture

The Middle-Tier and Data-Layer architecture are the nuts and bolts behiend the scenes that drive the user interface. For the simplest of projects require very little architecture. Some projects may have a simple user interface, and a very complex server side implementation (Think Google).

Documentation

We believe the more documentation, the the better. It adds clarity to the design process, transparency to the client and a long term value when time come to modify the application.

Maintenance

Of course, we provide maintenence for the applications we have written. We also can dive into exisisting code to do anything from making text changes, to a complete rewrite of an application.
