Who We Are

I had the opportunity to build a company's national infrastructure from the ground up in the mid 1990s.

I found that the software systems did not do what most people needed them to. High prices with low performance.

I have been in the IT world since the first desktop computer arrived in the 80s. Coding in Pascal, Basic, and C at the time. That evolved to many other programs over 30 years. My employer in New York City saw fit to elevate my position to Director of IT for a national publishing company. IT management gives a person the opportunity to gain perspective on all phases of the business. We have to know all the details of every operation to make the systems work. Then those systems tie back to the profitability of the company. We become keenly aware of the companies balance sheet. Operational knowledge at all levels is important to be successful as the IT director and the business manager.

My new approach to system design was to connect my programmers with the people doing the actual work. This enabled them to learn the job before beginning to code a program for it. Then the prototype program would be built and vetted by the people that would be using it. The program has to be easy to use and navigate naturally to the people's workflow.
