#3What I Do
I work with established businesses to solve their problems through custom software. Typically this is building a customized CRM to store and act on your specialized data once you’ve outgrown spreadsheets and off-the-shelf CRM products.
I can take you from initial problem realization all the way to a minimum viable solution, with maintenance and further enhancement available once the solution is in use. I have over 7 years of professional experience handling everything from small one-trick-pony billing apps to CRMs that manage an entire company from the ground up.
I don't just build something and then disappear, I want to be a long-term partner that grows your business.
What I’m Looking For
Part-time, slow-burn projects. I’m aiming for no more than 10 hours/week on any particular project (though that’s flexible if the price is right). I prefer fixed-fee engagements, but depending on the project a monthly retainer would also be acceptable.
What I’m Not Looking For
* Full-time "whale" clients that need undivided attention to their project.
* Equity
* Brand-new businesses

#5I do custom electronics, robotics, and embedded software development - I specialize in quickly turning ideas into prototypes. I've built custom automation equipment for chemistry labs, sensors that are in use in household/utility applications, control circuitry for construction equipment, 3d printing electronics, data acquisition equipment. No project too small. Few projects too large. Deep discounts for open source hardware work.
I would also be happy to come over (anywhere in Europe) and teach any of the above skills to a small group of interested people. I've taught courses in electronic assembly (SMD), 3d printing (building/using printers, iterative 3d model design using programming) and robot design and construction. I've taught courses at several universities, hackspaces, and conferences.
