For more than 12 years, I've been heavily involved in putting on developer conferences. These conferences range from free to attendees (Silicon Valley Code Camp Since 2007 and typically has close to 3000 attendees and 200 sessions) to AngularU which is a high end event held at a top hotel attracting attendees from 37 countrieshttp://www.siliconvalley-codecamp.com/News/2016/ktvu-fox-2-came-to-sv-code-camp-todayhttps://angularu.com/ng/

Established a presence in Silicon Valley (Plug and Play Offices) and hired several engineers and contractors to deliver a sophisticated transportation logistics application. The final application is currently being used to optimize tens of thousands of shipments on a daily basis. The application is running on a web farm and is SqlServer based with 100% ExtJS JavaScript running on the client.

Leader, mentor, and manager of a team of senior developers and QA (both offshore and locally) to deliver fast turnaround web- based consumer services. Following the Agile process for software releases, several products were built, deployed, and updated multiple times. Spent two weeks launching a team of eight engineers in Ukraine, focusing on bringing proprietary PSM technology to the group. Following that trip, successfully delivered 2 Agile sprints from the Ukraine team.

Major MilestonesOctober 2000 –Tufden, Inc., trademarks, proprietary software, claims business, and its many hundreds of customers’ software licenses and service contracts were purchased by Vision Service Plan (VSP), the largest eye care insurance company in the U.S. At the time of the acquisition, prominent customers included the current president, current past president and other board members of the American Optometric Association (AOA), which represents more than 32,000 doctors of optometry across the country, as well as numerous optometric practices in various states. Tufden provided turnkey office automation computer systems that allowed doctors to efficiently maintain billing and marketing relationships with their patients.December 1999 –Received sign-off on delivery of a fully functional business processing system to Vision Care, Inc., the second largest eye care insurance company in the U.S. This system, primarily designed and architected by Peter Kellner, managed the primary business functions of VCI. These functions included claims management, group and broker management and sales commissions as well as provider and lab payments. The final product was a three-tier solution involving both thick and thin clients running against an Oracle 8i server.January 1996 –Created a business-to-business exchange so eye care doctors could send third party insurance claims through Tufden to the appropriate carriers. The architecture of this exchanged allowed customers to aggregate claims to different carriers based on server-based rules. At the time of the acquisition in October of 2000, more than 15,000 claims per month were being routed through Tufden’s servers to the appropriate insurance carriers.

Worked in a fast paced systems analysis group responsible for overall system performance. Developed an expertise using various graphic and database packages running on micro, mini, and mainframe computer systems including DEC VAX and IBM Mainframe technologies.

As a summer intern, I worked at the prestigious Ford Motor Company design center in Dearborn Michigan. Along side designer and engineers I helped formulate next generation automobiles. The projects I worked on included 5mph bumper designs, passive restraint systems as well as next generation structural components to make future cars safer and lighter.(Best job ever!)
