      I started here as a developer and moved up to technical lead of a small development team after one year. My team built large- scale line-of-business applications, websites, web services, and native iOS, Android and Windows applications. At AltSource I learned the importance of the SOLID principles and unit testing as they pertain to very large software projects. I learned how and when to properly refactor, and how to continuously improve a large codebase while delivering features at a steady clip. As a regular speaker at our weekly developer talks, I evangelized best practices and good design. As team lead, I worked closely with Apple to onboard the iPhone line of products into Consumer Cellular's ecommerce business (www.consumercellular.com/iphone). I also spearheaded the architectural design and implementation of their new fully responsive shopping cart experience.

      Moving quickly from web developer to jack-of-all-trades, full- stack developer, my duties here involved back-end development, database administration, release management, requirements discovery and new feature design. At American Registry I learned how to be productive as an independent developer. On this small team working on massive systems, I learned the importance of being transparent, accountable, and productive as a remote developer.

      As a new developer fresh out of school, this internship-turned- job was my introduction to the world of web development and programming. I maintained and added features to a wide array of client websites. Projects ranged from basic brochure websites to full-featured ecommerce systems. Besides learning the ropes of software development, this is where I learned the importance of partnering with stakeholders to achieve the desired feature set when designing a piece of software. I would often meet with clients and observe their business, all the time asking questions and learning the business as best I could to avoid just building "what the client asked for."
