Services

While I am a programmer by trade creating custom software and web applications, I also provide many valuable services to my existing clients including virus removal, spam filtering, network design, router configuration, firewall setup, domain registration, web hosting, and web based e-mail.

Often times I am called in to clean up messes made by other professionals, including fixing broken code, exterminating software bugs, and reconfiguring networks, as well as adding new features to existing software.



About Me

At age 9, my father introduced my to the world of programming starting with Basic on an Atari 800 XL.  I was in the third graduating class of the Troy Tech Magnet Program at Troy High School in Fullerton, CA where I first learned advanced programming languages including spending a lot of my free time modifying the WWIV BBS Software in C.  By the time I graduated one year early from the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY with a Bachelors Degree in Computer Science, I already had spent countless hours programming on my own.

I've spent the past decade developing solutions for small to medium size businesses as well as pursuing my own projects with various busines partners, including writing a full-fledged Restaurant Point-of-Sale system that is currently running in at least 40 restaurants including a number of Oggi's Pizza & Brewing Company and Zoe's Kitchen locations. It has also been used at the SkiDazzle ski shows the past few years where it handles thousands of sales per day. 

I've always worked on my own projects independently, like my Photo Gallery for my wife and I, but also ended up making the family blog software I created able to handle other families at MyFamBlog.com. I've opened it up to allow people to create blogs for their own family with all of the features I already had provided for my own family.

In January of 2006, I relocated to Albuquerque, NM, but I still travel to Southern California and continue to work with existing clients there.  I am a partner in several businesses and continue to innovate.

I am heavily experienced in all of Microsoft's relevant platforms and keep up to date based on my clients' needs.  I also have a network of other business professionals to tap when there is a need.
