OBJECTIVE
To design and implement cutting edge Java based software solutions.
EXPERIENCE
Aeus Consulting Inc., Pomona, CA 11/2000 - PresentJava Developer/Technical Team Lead
* Designed and implemented part of a
scalable online project management tool
using J2EE architecture, Weblogic
Application Server, Enterprise Java
Beans / EJB, Java Servlets, Java
Server Pages / JSP, Oracle 8i, and
Visual Caf? on a Windows NT platform.

Rubber Room Resoles, Bishop, CA 9/2000 - 10/2000Java Developer
* Designed and implemented an E-Commerce
customer order entry system using Java
Applets, JDBC, and MS Access 2000.
Reflection Fabrix Inc., Marina Del Rey, CA 6/2000 - 8/2000Algorithm Specialist / C++ developer
* Developed numerical algorithms for
visually modeling fabric in animated
applications using Visual C++.
* Developed grid transformation software
to convert 3D finite element grids from
triangular to quadrilateral meshes
using Visual C++.
Amgen Corporation, Thousand Oaks, CA 11/1999 - 6/2000Java Developer
* Developed client-server and distributed
applications for reporting and analysis
of clinical trials data using Java,
JDBC, VB, VBA and Oracle 7.
* Wrote extensive and complex queries in
SQL for ODBC database applications.
* Wrote Java JDBC layers to convert LAN
database applications into distributed
web based applications.
Enterworks Inc., Pasadena, CA 1/1999 - 4/1999Java Developer
* Designed and implemented test harnesses
and automated testing applications in
Java and SQL for testing proprietary
JDBC drivers for enterprise meta-
database applications.
* Worked extensively with JDBC API's.
* Tested drivers for certification with
Cold Fusion, Crystal Reports and MS
Query.
Irvine Company, Irvine, CA 11/1998 - 1/1999Software Analyst
* Designed and implemented financial
accounting and reporting applications
using Visual Basic for Application
(VBA), SQL and ODBC.
Nichols Research, El Segundo, CA 7/1998 - 11/1998Software Developer/ Analyst
* Performed post flight analysis of radar
and optical data. Modeled and
predicted sensor system performance.
* Identified and eliminated radar data
anomalies resulting in significantly
improved system performance.
* Designed and developed VBA Macros using
Visual Basic with MS Jet Engine.
Graphically modeled ballistic and
orbital trajectories using C++.
* Updated multi-sensor data fusion
algorithm to accommodate nominal sensor
bias errors resulting in significant
improvement in data fusion performance.
* Developed post flight data analysis
tools for reformatting and coordinate-
transforming sensor data using Visual
Basic, MS Jet Engine, and the OLE
automation capabilities of VB. Did pre-
flight planning and predictions in
support of NMD ballistic missile test
flights.

* Revised and improved physics
curricula. Named NAPS 'Science
Instructor of the Year'. Studied
computational fluid mechanics at
University of Rhode Island.
* Developed scientific educational
software on orbital trajectories using
C++ with Visual Basic GUI.
* Utilized innovative numerical methods
for modeling orbital trajectories using
a finite difference solution to the
equations of motion, coupled with a
Keplerian radial correction.
* Completely redesigned and rebuilt
student attendance and grade database
software to update from text based to
Windows based system. Designed and
developed data tables in MS Access and
wrote three separate database front
ends in Visual Basic 5.0.
* Coded finite volume solutions for
transport equation applications in
FORTRAN on a Unix platform.
