I love satisfyingly difficult projects. I've worked on many different types of projects; big and small. Each one of them is unique and can't be bought off-the-shelf. My passion is web and mobile apps. My expertise is being a technical strategist for new entrepreneurs and startups.

Mike is a broadly talented web engineer, with a rare combination of design and engineering insight. At Mozes, he served as lead architect and developer on our Zend PHP Framework, integrating technologies such as Zend Forms and a reusable component wizard that he invented. Mike has extensive knowledge of new open source technologies and brings a creative approach to using these technologies to solve real-world problems.

I had the distinct pleasure to work with Mike for just a short time at Zenoss, but he made a lasting impression. Mike is a highly intelligent engineer with deep and diverse skills crossing multiple areas of software development and architecture. I had no problem leaning on him to provide technical leadership for the team, and his strong analytical skills proved highly valuable in the design and implementation of some very complex solutions for Zenoss.

Mike is a guy whose dedication to success is deeply rooted. I truly appreciated his integrity and determination while he was at Zenoss. Even after he had made the decision to move on he remained fully engaged in our development effort until his very last day. Mike was up late dropping code in the middle of the night right up until the end. In large part due to his strong work ethic and deep sense of responsibilty we were able to meet our product commitments.

I would gladly work with Mike again in the future.

Mike is one of those rare individuals that can see the big picture, yet not be distracted by it. He addresses problems pragmatically and efficiently offering solutions that lead to superior outcomes. I only worked with Mike for 9 months, but it was a pleasure to have him as a leader on my team; I would welcome the opportunity to work with him again.
