My most recent six years have been spent in data migration and application transformation projects. These have been focused both strategically and tactically on data migration and transformation using MS SQL and C# (.net6//7, Entity Framework). I have used these tools to either lift and shift data to a defined target or create a process with apps that a) consume target system APIs, b) implement SQL CLR functions to standardize content, or in some cases c) move data from SQL to Microsoft MDS for ease of access by SME users on projects.My applications development background is extensive, covering such diverse areas as data base design, software products integration, DBA, e-commerce, and a wide variety of functional applications. These have had both high volume and high availability requirements. My hands-on approach is well versed and experienced with Agile/Scrum and many of the components of the Microsoft product line. These include expertise in C#, SQL server, Visual Studio, MDS, VBA, HTTP (REST/SOAP), SSIS/SSRS, MSMQ, etc.The breadth and depth of my experience covers many industries as well as Federal and City governments. With extensive experiences comes the ability to ask the right questions, resulting in better answers, and better decisions. Exceptional is, after all, ‘getting right the first time those things that are hard to change’. This works especially well when collaborating to meet external as well as internal client requirements.My influencing skills are considerable, my leadership style is described as situational, and my approach to challenges is effective and decidedly unique (covered in several chapters of ‘the book’). My ability to express complex technical concepts in a business context and understandable manner is well developed
Listed skills include Software Development, Integration, Cross Functional Team Leadership, Saas, and 45 others.
