What I do

Hint: I’m more than a software developer

Software delivery is hard. There are many tiny details that need to be considered, technologies to master, and business cases to learn. Delivering working software is a huge challenge.

It’s also expensive. A small software development team (2 good developers and a project manager) can easily cost $250,000/year.

Finally, it’s risky. Studies have shown that most projects are 6 to 12 months behind schedule and 50 to 100% over budget.

We try to deliver software:
1.With high quality
2.On budget
3.On time

I present topics and give talks to help developers and Agile Managers hit those goals.

I provide services as an information resource for .NET Developers and Agile Managers to get a glimpse into how I work in my capacity as an SDLC auditor. This serves as a starting point for further conversation.

On the .NET Developer side, I focus on two topics:
•Staying on track
•Keeping the quality high
•Working with management

On the Agile Management side:
•Be efficient
•Measure and adjust
