Senior software engineer with more than 30 years of experience designing, building, and supporting business-critical software, specializing in bank payment systems for Fedwire, FedNow, SWIFT, ACH, and ISO 20022 messaging. I program in C#, VB.NET, C++, Delphi, T-SQL, JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP, and PowerShell, and I've built everything from Windows services and WinForms/WPF desktop applications to ASP.NET Core Web APIs and Blazor web apps, on every version of .NET from Framework 2.0 to .NET 10. My data work centers on SQL Server, Entity Framework Core, and ADO.NET, including stored procedures and performance tuning. On the security side, I've implemented Azure AD/Entra ID, IdentityServer, JWT authentication, digital signing, and encryption. I use DevExpress, Serilog, OpenTelemetry, and Swagger; automate builds and quality checks with Azure DevOps and SonarCloud; and use AI in my work, both by integrating the OpenAI API and by developing with Claude Code. I also design professionally in Adobe tools, so I can deliver a complete solution, from the database and API to the user interface, the brand, and the website.
