PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

EMBEDDED SYSTEMS UI DEVELOPER (PRIMARY), 2003 - PRESENT
NANOSPHERE, Illinois
Nanosphere is a nanotechnology-based life sciences company whose mission is to
create new standards in discovery, medical care, and public safety through the
application of proprietary nanotechnology.
Successfully brought a complex bitmap-intensive and internationalized graphical
user interface for medical optical detection instrument with touchscreen and
16-bit color from requirements to device FDA review.  A significant component of
this development was an independent user-friendly Windows .NET utility used to
map generic definitions of critical patient data required persistent to
serialization specifications including auto-generated target code for
serializations, deserializations, and fast access to particular serialized
fields, and a separate .NET utility for remote desktop editing of patient data
directly off the target.  Requirements analyses, object-oriented design, graphic
design, interaction design, software development, video controllers, performance
engineering, documentation, formal analyses, code reviews.

EMBEDDED SYSTEMS UI DEVELOPER (PRIMARY), 2001 - 2003
MCS ENGENHARIA, Săo Paulo, Brazil
MCS Engenharia Ltda. occupies a key position in the Brazilian CNC market,
offering solutions for the industrial automation market’s demands.
Developed an internationalized graphical user interface, including a custom 3-D
graphics engine, for CNC.  Developed a compiler and execution environment for the
mixed RS274/MCS dialogue language.  Requirements analyses, object-oriented
design, interaction design, software development, internationalization, video
controllers.

eNote.com, Inc., a small start-up no longer in existence, was founded to develop
TVemail.
Aided in the development of TVemail, an embedded Internet appliance. 
Object-oriented design, software development, video controllers.

STUDENT APPLICATIONS PROGRAMMER, 1998 - 1998
IBM, Essex, Vermont
Aided in the migration of a mainframe-based semiconductor chip test data storage
system to a RISC-based DB2 database, requiring a detailed examination of the
legacy system and creative programming using multiple languages to emulate the
old system.  Was the key programmer in the creation of a Translator program to
automate the translation of the older SLANG analysis code into SAS code for data
analysis.  Awarded an IBM Award in December 1998 for the idea and development of
this program.
