More...

Here is a motivated consultant who takes responsibility for getting the job done. His excellent communication skills make him an effective listener and team contributor while facilitating his understanding of a clientâ?™s needs. During a 26 year career as a programmer and software developer, John has built lasting relationships with both clients and associates. And while his experience may be reflected in his resume, you should interview his clients to appreciate the efficient and innovative solutions he has been able to provide. He has worked on projects by himself as well as a leader of small teams of developers on larger projects. He has always been quick to take advantage of emerging tools, technology, and languages, and has adapted to the evolving requirements of business.

The key to a successful project is flexibility: Tell John what you want and how he can accommodate you. Chances are good he will come a mutual agreement that works for you.

If your previous consultant or programmer bailed out on you, John will continue where they left off and complete your project. If you have a large system that needs to be designed or maintained or if you only need a small function but not sure where to go, he will help you.

Where

If youâ?™re in the upper New England area, I will do work on site if the job requires it. Outside of that, I will arrange periodic meetings anywhere in the world using electronic communication.

When

For short projects of 10-40 hours, I can be available on short notice. Longer projects will need to be scheduled.

Rates

My nominal rate is $75 (1099 filing) but this depends on the details of the job, length and IRS filing status. If you have calculated a budget for a project, I will try to work with you to maintain that budget.

Agencies

If you prefer working through an agency, please have your agency contact me, or I'd be happy to contact your agency contact person.

Convert your DOS applications to Windows!

Do you have an old DOS application that needs to be updated for Windows? I can take any DOS application with or without source code and migrate it to Windows on time and on budget. Send your DOS application and I will give you a no obligation quote on the cost to convert. Complete source code included so you may get up to speed on Windows quickly and maintain the system after the migration.
