Worked with multiple clients to build custom websites with a focus on responsive modern designs. I used standards-based HTML5, css, and javascript that worked across all modern browsers and scaled down gracefully for phone and tablet screens without any loss of content or functionality. Many sites consisted of a custom backend that was usually written in the ASP.NET MVC framework. I also setup and customized WordPress for some clients writing custom themes and plugins.

Designed and built an automated photo uploading mobile app. Pictures were uploading in the background to cloud storage and made accessible to view and share with other via a website. The mobile app was released for BlackBerry, iOS, Android, and Windows Mobile.

Worked on creating and maintaining several web-based customer support solutions for clients such as HTC, Gevalia Coffee, Hawaiian Airlines, and AT&T. Maintained some legacy ASP systems as well as migrated some systems to ASP.NET and C#.

Worked with a client to build a custom ERP desktop application that tracked customers, parts, and orders.

Initial designer and architect for the handheld and web-based service. This service was designed with scalability for millions of consumers to use via telephone and handheld devices. Designed in Java for Blackberry devices, with backend server and web frontend written in C# and backed by MS SQL Server 2000.

Developed a working prototype of the electronic prescribing application for the Blackberry handheld, which lead to the full scale development of a Blackberry application that was successfully launched and used by thousands of physicians.
