God has blessed me to have 25 plus years of solid experience in the analysis, design, development, maintenance and management of software solutions. Having developed many applications for prestigious companies, I have the extensive experience in knowing what may work best in the implementation of these systems. How to make it fast, how to handle data processing efficiently, how to fit our system and make it simple despite the challenges of the clients’ complicated requirements.
