      Developed many applications for zBlueSoftware, with the current being the Z1 Software suite for racing simulator and real world dashboards and telemetry analysis. It consists of 4 applications: Dashboard, Analyzer, Designer and Server. I have brought this software from inception to world wide use. My current role in its development is to determine the road map for the applications, design the overall application architecture, and work with clients to help customize it to their needs. Written in C++ for Windows, the Z1 Software is utilized by Indy Car teams, AI racing teams, real world drivers, and sim racers world-wide. Previous applications: LPS (Lighting Paperwork System) - I was in charge of developing this application from the ground up. It was a Java desktop application for PC and Mac users designed to manage all the paperwork necessary to create and run a theatrical production, from a small school show up to a Broadway level production. It introduced many new features to this area of software, from internet synchronization across multiple users, to pattern images and motion simulation, and color mixing. LPS was sold to Rosco Laboratories, a world-wide leader in the entertainment industry. FSX Planner: This desktop application was used to design airports for Microsoft's FSX flight simulation. As the architect of this application I was invited out to Seattle to talk to Microsoft about the technologies and UI design used within the application to create the airport data for use within their sim.

      Over almost two decades I oversaw the transition of this company from a publisher of medical books, to one of the leading online doctor resources in the country. My work with this company and the software I created was a key aspect that led to Castle Connolly being acquired in 2019 by Everyday Health. I was in charge of creating all the internal software, databases and web software used to run all aspects of this medical company's business. I was also instrumental in facilitating their partnerships with other companies through the creation and implementation of APIs and other data sharing technologies, working with teams from US News & World Report, multiple hospitals across the country, and multiple news organizations such as New York Magazine Show less
