I've been automating tasks and saving people time since the age of 13, empowering teams to focus on new challenges. With a strong background in software development and a relentless pursuit of innovation, I specialize in:Software development & deploymentSystems automation & integrationMobile app development, particularly with CapacitorDigital communicationsServer setup & maintenanceDatabase development & managementReporting and logistics optimizationMacro and script developmentWebsite developmentMy career journey includes significant pivots, granting me insights into business development, administration, project management, and logistics across military and commercial sectors. From 2022 onwards, I've been a full-stack developer at Harbor Wholesale, enhancing their mobile platform, HarborHub, by integrating Bluetooth printing capabilities into an Angular-based codebase through Capacitor plugins for native iOS Swift and Android Kotlin integration.Between 2004 and 2022, I was with NCR, wearing multiple hats as a software developer, professional services consultant, business analyst, and project manager. My focus was on transportation automation enterprise software, 'NCR Power Delivery,' deployed on ruggedized Android handheld scanners.

I bring a unique perspective as a naturalized U.S. citizen, formerly from The Netherlands, and a background as a veteran from a tour in the US Air Force. As a father of five, I'm deeply committed to my family, and I'm an enthusiastic cyclist, runner, climber, and weightlifter. I'm constantly in awe of robots, space technologies, and 3D printing.My core goals are to:Stay hands-on in technical workAdapt to any software development stackStreamline processes by reducing repetitive tasksEnhance system efficiencyDrive incremental innovation in all endeavors.
