Software Developer (Senior)
United States United States
I've been in development since the late eighties. Although I've picked up many languages over the years and will likely pick up many more I have been a Microsoft BASIC programmer the whole time. Back in the early days it was on a Color Computer 3 writing articles for an enthusiast's magazine and developing solutions for color computer users. Now it is C#, VB.NET and (still) VBScript with all the fixins (ADO,XML,JSON,SQL etc...). Around 1996 I decided the internet was the way to go and dedicated myself to web development. I've been doing it ever since.

Two of my favorite projects are working for a little company called Nigrelli Systems and working with a team of brilliant Engineers to develop fully automated packaging systems for the food and beverage industry. The second is working on a "Burn Room" Nemschoff Chairs, again I was blessed with a team of people who knew their stuff. The burn room remains unique to this day because there are only a handfull of certified rooms in the US.
