Summary
I like to build software that works for people. I have the technical skills and a proven ability to collaborate successfully with people from the boardroom to the shop floor to do that. I have longer-than-I-care to admit experience with C-languages (C, C++, C#), Windows technologies, SQL Databases, and mobile applications from before mobile was cool. Recently I've been heavily involved with REST web services using .NET MVC, .NET Web API, and Entity Framework, and client-side web applications with HTML5, Javascript and supporting technologies like jQuery, RequireJS, Knockout, and IndexedDB.

A web-based, mobile-ready single page application (SPA) for administering the REST interface using C#, .NET MVC, Javascript, JQuery, RequireJS, Knockout, IndexedDB and the Durandal SPA framework .
