    Are you struggling with aligning technology investments with business objectives and ensuring a return on investment in your technology-driven business? 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜 𝗗𝗢: I help technology-driven industries align their technology investments with business objectives and achieve a return on investment by developing tailored technology strategies, fostering collaborative partnerships, and providing ongoing support throughout the implementation process. This approach ensures that technology investments are directly aligned with business goals, leading to enhanced operational efficiency, improved customer experiences, increased innovation, and a competitive edge in the market. By working closely with clients and continuously adapting strategies as their business evolves, I help them obtain a greater return on investment and accomplish more of their objectives with less effort. 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗜’𝗩𝗘 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗜𝗧: I was brought in as a technical advisor/Interim CTO when a client faced challenges and lacked confidence in their app developer agency. By immediately assessing the situation and understanding the client's goals, I steered the project in the right direction. Through this process, I identified the need for a new agency to support the next phase of development and recommended necessary infrastructure changes. I also ensured clear communication between the client and the agency, leading to the app being built correctly and aligned with the desired functionalities. As a result of these actions, the owner gained confidence in the app development process. The app was not only built correctly but also delivered on time and with transparency. The client felt assured that their goals were met and that the app was developed to support all desired functionalities. The client expressed their regret in not hiring me from the beginning, as my involvement made a significant positive impact on the project. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗠𝗬 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗦 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗦𝗔𝗬𝗜𝗡𝗚: “We knew within a few minutes of talking to Daniel that we had (after many failed attempts) found a developer/consultant that is an expert in the field and could lead us in getting our project to launch. Daniel is detail oriented, professional, responsive and has excellent communication skills that have been invaluable to us in many aspects of our project. Daniel is knowledgeable, experienced and an efficient team leader. We recommend him without reservation.” Jen, GoShimmy “Finding Daniel was like hitting "Triple 7's" on the slots! Right out of the gate he was able to take a very broad project concept and grasped the essence of the system we intended to build. He then turned around and provided extremely valuable insight. We then tasked him with the job of helping us find and vet a top-tier development team. Armed with our list of requirements, he methodically vetted many teams until he found one that that was the perfect fit for our project. I can say with earnest that without Dan's assistance I do not believe we would have been able to achieve the inroads we have up to this point. I cannot give Dan enough praise nor recommend him highly enough. Dan is a true master of his trade.” Steve, ZinZuu Technologies “In the first few minutes of our call Daniel immediately showed us the true professional and expert he is in his field. He provided us with more value than we could have asked for on this call and really simplified complex technical things In terms that our whole team was able to understand. I would highly recommend him to any team or business looking to get advice on new development projects and or improving existing developments. Thank you Daniel and we are looking forward to our next call!” Robert, Private - Startup Initiative “I hired Daniel to develop a Windows desktop application which required deep understanding of low level IoT device I/O, programming, and configuration. Daniel took loose specifications along with hardware devices and was able to unravel all of the technical design details and develop a solution that was fast, reliable, and efficient. I would highly recommend Danial as a Sr. level engineer capable of taking on projects of any magnitude.” Heath, Mueller Water Products 𝗪𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗡 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘? Contact me today!
