Executive Summary
Welcome to my Curriculum Vitae. I understand that it is hard to get an accurate perception of one's skills without further information regarding that individual. Still, a simple online portfolio doesn't necessarily accurately depict the true skills, experience, and nature of an individual, regardless of how accurately one attempts to describe and annotate themselves. With that said, if you have an interest in my abilities, please do send me a message with any questions you may have. If you prefer alternate means of contact, social media links are in the footer of this website.
Professional Objectives
Throughout my career, I have striven to establish myself as both a thought leader and a valuable resource to businesses and organization that seek my services. I intended to continue to develop out this path, while also eagerly evaluating new technologies. As someone who is typically an early adapter, I take a slightly more nuanced approach to professional skills. While a concrete objective is to become well versed in emerging technologies, such an objective must be accompanied by a proper evaluation period to determine the value of acquiring new skills.

Professional Skills
They say, "to stay on top of your game, you must continually educate yourself." So, that's exactly what I have done. Graduating from Full Sail University was, in hind sight, merely a starting point. Since graduating in 2011, I have had the good luck and fortune to hone in my skills in a multitude of ways; from client work to purely side projects. Listed below are skills and certifications that I believe speak to the quality of my work. For a general overview, refer to my Services page.
Object-Oriented Programming
When it comes to programming, Object-Oriented Programming is something I take seriously. OOP allows for clean, modular, and easily extensible code.
Clean, Professional Design
My design style is a clean and professional business style; something I've honed in over the years. I may not be able to design a great website for a circus, but I can do wonders for your business.
Responsive Design
Responsive, mobile-first design is no longer a nicety — it's a hardcore requirement in today's age of mobile devices. Every website I design and develop is fully responsive.
e-Commerce
One of my skills best known involves eCommerce; from planning to design and development, I hold a deep understanding of online sales and what's required to make eCommerce work.
Systems Architecture
Architecting an online store, a web application, an API, or any other complex system is something I'm passionate about. I believe effectively planning a project saves a great deal of time and money.
CRM/XRM/CMS
For medium to large size businesses, CRM is huge. Collecting, controlling, and utilizing data is the lifeblood of a company, and developing and extending CRM applications is something I very much enjoy.
