Us

Winner of the 2011 United Health Group Spark Award for Innovation. Awarded project is called "TouchPoints", and is a WPF web browser application. TouchPoints is a multifunction kiosk application used for customer service applications and patient check in. Functionality is configurable and scalable, and was recognized among 500+ as a truly innovative solution to increase productivity in the HealthCare industry. The Customer Service kiosk provides services and information that are not currently delivered in kiosk form by other medical providers. The check in kiosk provides service that is delivered by other third-party vendors, but the per-unit cost of TouchPoints is approximately 20% of the cost of third-party kiosks.Currently building .NET apps in C#, VB, WCF and WPF for internal UHC users and patients. I also do a lot of project management for clinical 3rd party systems. All projects are subject to design review, and must meet very strict regulatory requirements with regard to the security of healthcare information.

Worked in the R&D Systems division building .NET apps in C# and Silverlight 2 for networked gaming applications. All applications are built around a Service Oriented Architecture with heavy usage of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), for transfer of data between UI and database tiers. All applications are developed in an Agile environment, employing the Scrum methodology, and are subject to rigorous quality control and regulatory evaluation.
