During my time at Neboweb, I was responsible for leading the conversion of existing PHP applications and Content Management Systems (CMS) into ASP.NET, helping the organization transition to a more scalable and robust platform. This involved not only code migration but also re-architecting certain parts of the applications to ensure they aligned with ASP.NET’s framework, providing long-term flexibility and performance improvements. I worked closely with the development team to ensure that the transition was smooth, with minimal disruption to the existing applications.In addition to leading technical conversions, I mentored junior developers on coding practices, ensuring they understood both PHP and ASP.NET frameworks, and guiding them in adopting industry best practices. This mentorship contributed to the team’s overall growth and helped junior developers improve their skills in full-stack development.A significant part of my role involved converting PDFs and wireframes into HTML/CSS prototypes, turning static designs into functional web interfaces. I collaborated with project managers to provide accurate estimates and timelines for development tasks, ensuring that both technical and business requirements were aligned.I also developed new websites using a custom PHP framework integrated with MySQL and jQuery, tailoring the backend and front-end components to meet specific project needs. This work involved building dynamic, interactive websites that catered to client specifications, while ensuring efficient database integration and smooth user experiences.

At Silver Moon Concepts, I was responsible for designing and developing a robust web platform using ColdFusion and SQL Server to handle the company’s online sales. The website I developed not only streamlined the company’s e-commerce operations but also significantly boosted revenue—surpassing the combined sales of all the company’s sales personnel. This project involved integrating the shopping cart functionality across multiple customer websites using ASP, ColdFusion, and SQL Server, ensuring a seamless and efficient user experience for all customers.One of the key integrations I developed was with ConnectShip, using XML to link the website with real-time shipping services. This provided customers with accurate shipping charges and tracking information directly on the platform, enhancing the overall service quality and improving order transparency.In addition to e-commerce functionality, I designed and implemented a web-based email promotion system, which included both the content and layout for promotional campaigns. This system allowed the company to create and send targeted marketing campaigns, increasing customer engagement and driving more traffic to the website.Another critical project I led was the development of a supply chain management system. This system allowed vendors to check inventory levels and submit new order requests for approval by management. It improved efficiency by automating the supply chain process, reducing manual tasks, and ensuring accurate inventory tracking.I also managed the migration of the company’s database from Paradox to SQL Server using data transformation services, ensuring the company’s data infrastructure could handle future growth.
