I never hesitate to expand my breadth of knowledge and experience when the opportunity presents itself. As a result, for the last 25 years I've dabbled in innumerable aspects of the ever-expanding IT field, from building and customizing PCs (Windows 95/98/XP/Vista/7/10 and Ubuntu), HTPCs (Kodi/XBMC), NASs (FreeNAS/TrueNAS), and NVRs (Blue Iris, ZoneMinder); to configuring home LANs with multiple isolated sub-nets and APs (DD-WRT, OpenWrt, pfSense, and Tomato); to learning and implementing a plethora of programming languages (AutoIt, C++, Java, JS, Lua, Perl, Python, Ruby, VBA, and VBS), CLI languages (bash/dash, PowerShell, and Windows batch), and various other languages (CSS, HTA/HTML, PHP, SQL); to even creating a custom barcode-based inventory and tracking system for the storage, movement, and transfer of current and former patient-inmate Unit Health Records for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Throughout the years, I have compiled (pun intended) a catalog of personal scripts, modules, and code fragments which I have utilized in my personal and professional endeavors. I enjoy solving the problematic, bridging software gaps, and automating the mundane and repetitive, and I immensely enjoy the inherent sense of accomplishment that subsequently follows the successful completion of each project. *** All the software I create is licensed to you and your company under the PolyForm Internal Use 1.0.0 license. *** ( polyformproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/PolyForm-Internal-Use-1.0.0.txt )Game DesignLinuxSQL ProgrammingMacro ProgrammingPythonSQLGoogle SheetsMicrosoft AccessMicrosoft Excel - $25 hourly
