For over 20 years I have architected and developed highly available, reliable, scalable, and flexible solutions that provide business value.Experience has taught me that my professional values boil down to the following:► The Customer is #1. ► I'm a multi-linguist of technology-driven business. I speak fluent geek, business, and client. Understanding means fewer missteps, and missteps cost a fortune.► "Information is not knowledge, and knowledge is not understanding, and without understanding, you cannot reason." - unknown► "Complexity is your enemy. Any fool can make something complicated. It is hard to keep things simple." - Richard Branson► Must maintain up-to-date knowledge of technology standards, industry trends, emerging technologies, and software development best practices. ► I'm self-motivated, relentlessly curious, and always learning.► It's important to understand the business, customer, and user to create solutions that are both innovative and meet current needs.► Building relationships are critical in building solutions.► I don't care who gets the credit. I just want the team to win.► I'm a mentor, a motivator, and an advocate for best practices.► I'm the one you count on when a critical issue needs resolving.► I'm the one who runs toward the fire.To know me better, please view my professional online profiles: ★ Personal Technology Blog - http://www.BarDev.com/ ★ StackOverflow Profile - http://stackoverflow.com/users/92166/mike-barlow-bardev ★ GitHub - https://github.com/BarDev, https://gist.github.com/BarDev
