I'm an independent software consultant with 10+ years of development experience across a diverse set of projects. I've worked with a wide range of clients, all the way from fledgeling startups to enterprise corporations, and it's been a pleasure to help each one improve peoples' lives through well-crafted software.As a developer/consultant, my goal is to help clients make smart technical decisions at every level, and then build out applications that are user friendly and highly maintainable. This is a matter of great communication, lots of past experience, and caring about the end result.As a member of the West Michigan tech community, I want to help give everyone the opportunity to learn about software and build cool things.Please get in touch if there's anything I can do for you, or if you just want to meet!-----Here is a sample of what I've helped clients achieve over the years:* A system to deliver and install firmware updates to software embedded in Intel NUCs.* Updates through multiple major versions of both Android and iOS, to prepare a release for an annual event.* A framework allowing product owners to update the complex, interactive content of a mobile app using pure JSON, without having to publish App Store or Play Store updates.* Migrate a large, custom React application with a GraphQL backend to use Next.js in order to utilize server-side rendering.* Update a web app to meet accessibility requirements for the Michigan Department of Education.* A report of low-level benchmark testing to compare rendering and touch detection for iOS and Android.* Integrate Stripe into an existing payment system to support one-time and subscription purchases.* Continuously transform vast amounts of financial data into interactive risk analysis metrics.* Enable a gradual migration from a multi-page legacy app to its replacement SPA by rendering HTTP responses into special React components.* Realtime A/V capture and streaming from a Windows application to a Linux application.* Serverless syncing for the state of a mobile app, with multiple live devices and unstable network connections.
