About the Developer

I began my career in the late 1990s as a client-server developer, working with technologies such as C, Visual Basic, ASP, SQL, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and MS-Access. During this time, I gained a solid foundation in structured programming, business logic, and early web integration.

In 2004, I launched my own development business, building custom websites for a range of clients. My toolset included HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL, and Photoshop. This period gave me valuable experience working independently, managing client relationships, and delivering full-stack solutions from concept to deployment.

As a full-time front-end developer, I worked extensively with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL, and Ajax. I focused on building engaging and performant user interfaces, while continuing to contribute to back-end functionality. It was during this time that I began seriously considering a shift toward deeper server-side development.

With a clear vision, I transitioned into back-end development, sharpening my skills in PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, and Ajax. I became increasingly focused on building scalable APIs, integrating legacy systems, and ensuring data integrity and performance on the server side.

In recent years, I’ve specialized in Drupal development, contributing to enterprise-level applications and public sector platforms. Working primarily in PHP, SQL, and JavaScript, I’ve developed custom modules, supported migrations, upgraded legacy Drupal systems, and built integrations with third-party services.

AI-assisted software development. Currently I'm developing APIs against sample databases with AI assist. Weeks turn into days, development-wise. Upcoming: AI-Assisted Drupal development. Looking forward to bringing my skills and experience to an organization where I’d mesh well.
