I am an innovative, energetic contributor with 10 years of professional experience complemented by a Masters degree in Computer Science and professional certifications. I am skilled in solution and integration architecture, full software life-cycle management, and a range of software development technologies.

Currently, I work full-time as a senior software developer at Troux Technologies in Austin, TX. As a member of the agile development team, I design and deliver functionality for our core product line which focuses on enterprise architecture and business transformation.

Before joining Troux Technologies, I was an integration architect and software developer in the Global Solution Center at IBM in Dallas, TX. As a member of the public sector leadership team, my work mainly involved designing and implementing government industry solution prototypes.

Before joining IBM, I was a systems analyst in the Division of Finance Software Development Team at Texas A&M University in College Station, TX. Hired as one of three founding members, I helped shape the direction of the new group by establishing sound software engineering practices, quality assurance standards, and project management strategies. While at Texas A&M, I successfully implemented and deployed over 15 different applications, varied in scope from large financial applications to small dynamic web sites.

Before returning to College Station, I was a technical consultant at Trilogy, an enterprise software development firm headquartered in Austin, Texas. I successfully deployed a business-to-business e-commerce solution for Alltel which was recognized as one of the top 5 of over 100 projects based on customer success. I also modeled configuration of high-end servers and storage products as part of a multi-million dollar project for Compaq.
