ABOUT ME

Full-Stack Developer, Architect, Designer, and Agile Trainer

I have 20 years experience as a full-stack developer, architect, and designer. I cofounded a company that specializes in cloud-based mobile apps for the enterprise. I’ve trained and coached hundreds of Fortune 500 technical employees in software engineering best practices, tooling, and agile best practices. I’ve also taught Java and C programming at University of Washington, Seattle.

I’ve designed, developed, and distributed apps using platforms and frameworks such as Java SE, Java EE, iOS, and Android.

John is super helpful, explains each step clearly, and makes sure you know what each line of code is doing to give a better understanding of the overall code. I will be going to John in the future for any help I need.

John is a Java expert and was able to help me big time. I had a somewhat technical implementation and John was able to read the documentation and catch on quickly. I've been studying the problem domain for months and he only had three days, but by the middle of it we were talking like peers who had been in the field for years. We also had some technical challenges we overcame and he persisted until the job got done. He saw I was a student and was very reasonable and didn't charge me for down time where we were downloading things or doing busy work. He didn't have to do that, and not all mentors do, but I appreciated it.
