Introduction
My name is David Homan.
I am a Senior Application Developer with over 20 years of experience
developing commercial applications. I learned early in my career,
that my abilities, work ethic and personality make me well suited
to meet the demands of high visibility, development projects.
12 years ago I began offering my services as a contractor. In
1996, I started QSoft. Our success has been built on the success
of our clients and their ability to deliver mission critical
applications, on time and within budget. Our clients have learned
to appreciate my ability to step into a project at any phase,
get up to speed quickly, and to substantially contribute to
the success of the project. I am equally comfortable designing,
developing and managing projects. I have led and participated
in all phases of small to enterprise level projects. My experience
includes Client/Server and Internet applications for a variety
of industries including healthcare, pharmaceutical and financial.
I have extensive, commercial development experience with both
Java and Microsoft technologies. My experience, dedication to
keeping up with the latest technologies, and commitment to my
client's success has earned me an excellent reputation in the
industry. I am confident in my ability to contribute to the
success of any software development or integration project.
