Best-of-breed software engineering at your service. Fast, efficient and knowledgeable. I eat code for breakfast, tacos for lunch and train AI to make my dinners. Perfection, beauty, performance and extensibility are my passion. Scoped for the future. Tested yesterday. Delivered today.
Your software written in the 2000s made it through the 2010s, but you have an enormous amount of legacy code, frameworks, business logic, dependencies and disconnected datasets that are becoming more and more difficult to maintain? Contact me ASAP.
Save capital, eliminate old or complex-to-maintain infrastructure and give your software, team and business the room to scale. Serverless computing, RESTful APIs, data replication and tiered-cost storage is at the heart of the cloud.

I've worked with over 220 clients on well over 1,000 projects over the past 25+ years. These are some of my most recent and proudest clients and full-time engagements:
MR has consistently demonstrated his keen ability to convert complex business scenarios into practical working code to facilitate our business objectives and build a rock-solid foundation to grow upon.
Working with an engineer that doesn't say no, object to every requirement or tell me it's impossible is incredibly refreshing! I've never seen working prototypes built so quickly... we are talking hours!
MR got our project done on-time, within budget and with extended functionality. Amazing work ethic and hands down one of the best experiences I've ever had!
