Coaching

I can help your team improve their software development skills, and learn new techniques to increase effectiveness, while they accomplish their current tasks. I can work with the team, teaching them more effective patterns of software development, while they work on their normal project. For most people, hands-on training on a code base important to them is far more effective than any classroom situation. In this fashion I can help provide immediate business value, while simultaneously enhancing the team's ability to provide business value in the future.

Assessments

I can assess a team's current situation and determine the areas where improvement will most help. Often a fresh set of eyes can notice things that have become so routine as to be invisible to those immersed in them. Sometimes a team lacks a certain range of experience to be able to realize what's possible. Other times a team may see so many things that need improvement, that they have a hard time finding the best starting point.

Programming

Yes, I still write code--good code, at that. I offer software development expertise with agility, accuracy and effectiveness. I've done work ranging from embedded assembly language to Enterprise Java (J2EE) development. My specialty is developing code that meets your business needs in the most cost-effective manner possible.
