ABOUT ME
Senior Full-Stack Engineer and Engineering Manager
Senior Full-Stack Engineer and Engineering Manager

Hello! My name is Cole. I've consulted for some of the largest engineering organizations in the world and have comprehensive experience building highly productive engineering teams. I'm here to help you with programming and beyond.

Building a successful software product takes a lot more than just writing code - the process and the tools used are just as important. You may have had the experience of working on a software project that seems to be delivering a ton of features and value early on, only to find development slow to a crawl as new features get added. Or, have you been on a project that has expended a ton of energy on planning but has little working software to show for it? I've helped countless clients overcome these challenges to build maintainable systems, choose the right tools for the job, and use the techniques necessary to go fast in the short term and the long term.

I can lend you my expertise whether you need help with coding, testability, or optimizing your software development process. I've worked hard to ensure that my clients are left with the knowledge and resources they need to be successful long after I am gone, and I will do the same for you.

I look forward to working with you!
Cole

I am an expert in test driven development and automated testing methodology. I have helped countless clients answer questions of 'how do I test this' and 'what needs to be tested'. I have applied these skills regardless of technology or framework with powerful results.
