DotNetNuke Module Development in C# for a multiple hospital portal implementation.
Project Management Documented project requirements and assisted in setting the 9 month project
schedule in my first week on the job. Adjusted all technical tasks to a more realistic timeline, reducing the
programming hours significantly and providing more time for quality assurance tasks. This ensured a better
final product.
Online Baby Nursery This module allows the hospitals to offer an online viewing area for newborns while
also protecting the privacy and keeping identities safe.
Charitable Foundation Management This module integrates management of multiple funds for charitable
foundations. Users can donate and view their donation history. Administrators can add, update, and delete
funds as well as get in depth reporting and export data for other programs.
Media Gallery This module integrates the video content from a health video provider, custom video
content hosted on a Content Delivery Network (CDN), and Podcast RSS aggregation. The different sources
(web services, JavaScript generated content, and xml) are combined into a very easy to administer system.
Virtual Tour Management The client required a system that accepts virtual tours developed in house and
by a third party. This module allows the client to upload a zipped package, specify the default file, and
display the tour to the public with just a few clicks. An additional module allows for placing a single tour
anywhere on the portal.
Health Content Integration This module integrates encyclopedia style health information throughout the
portals. This information originally was to be pulled from a web services architecture but we found out
during the first week of development on this module that the vendor could not deliver on promised
technology. I reworked our development plan to now include a flat file integration and update system and
still delivered the product on time.

loyal customer base in locations across the country. Red Beard has successfully tripled yearly revenues every year
since its inception.

for the web and desktop, including database structure, data access, business logic, and presentation. Keeping
complexity to a minimum, I create applications that are easy to maintain.
o Develop Software Products for a Broad Customer Base We have developed several products that have been
branded the rbd Control Center. These products include content management, contact management, email
marketing, and e-commerce. These systems are in use by customers in several industries including retail, business
communications, and legal firms. These systems are flexible enough to match the needs of a broad range of
customers with very little implementation cost.
o Develop Software Solutions to Fit the Needs of Customers We help customers assess their needs and their
budget and, from that information, we create a requirements document. We then deliver a software product tha t
meets those needs. I develop using the technologies that best suit the job, including VB.NET, ASP.NET, Web
Services, asp, visual basic, Windows Server 2003, MySQL, Sybase, and MS SQL Server 2000.

check for claim repayment. Application also uses Visual Basic COM for areas that needed faster completion of
more complex tasks. It makes it possible for the company to be compliant with new government regulations
requiring strict Medicare claim auditing (AHC must be able to identify where a claim is in the payment process at
any given time).

o Scheduling System This system is web-based and very robust. It allows corporate to schedule doctors at Health
Centers in our network and to automatically notify the Centers staff of schedule changes. The system does not
allow over-scheduling a doctor at more than one Center. The old system required corporate to call every Center
affected by the change as well as fax them the change and this often failed to notify the correct people. With the
new system this is no longer a problem.

o Appointment System Appointments are created and tracked across all Health Centers in our network.
Employees at centers can bring up information on patients and when previous appointments were scheduled. This
system interacts with the Scheduling system to let the Center s staff know which providers are available for
appointments at any given time.
