WORK EXPERIENCE
Web Developer
Human Synergistics Incorporated - Mount Prospect, IL - April 2014 to Present Full-time position at Human Synergistics Incorporated working on two projects. First, I converted a paper survey product to mobile web-based solution. I created a Web ASP.NET C# WCF Service and multiple HTML5, JQuery clients using the Telerik Kendo toolkit. The server service code uses C#, an object-oriented design, and LINQ-to-SQL. Second, I converted the existing online survey desktop-based web product to a responsive/ mobile-supporting solution using JQuery, CSS, and Bootstrap. Contractor position at Chicago United creating and enhancing their web site Chicago United - Chicago, IL - November 2011 to Present I added new web products and maintained and enhance their existing VB.NET pages. One of my bigger work items was to recreate from HTMLs and DLLs, a management tool with heavy DB interaction using ASP.NET C# and LINQ-to-SQL (the original code-behind files were lost). I also upgraded their software to incorporate logging, error handling, and the replacement of HTML embedded with SQL with OO data classes interacting with the DB using ADO.NET.
