Hire the Best Microsoft Access Programmers
in the United States

Hi all! I had a successful run with UpWork a few years back and decided to take a break to focus on my career and education. I am back now, hopeful and willing to take on any Excel/Access and custom scripting projects. I formerly worked as a metrology lab supervisor (if you want to talk about measuring things in nanometers we can do that too!), quality engineer, and in quality managmeent. I have a heavy background in industrial quality control but that has proven quite useful in programming and the way it is approached. I have been an avid amateur programmer for several years. I have learned some languages to an extent; C,C++,C#, Python and VB.NET to name a few. My strong skills have always resided in Excel and Access and utilizing VBA. I soon became the Subject Matter Expert at my place of employment and gained a lot of experience but also realized that I had found a niche and I really enjoyed this type of work. I began a strong 3 year stint in 2014, with stellar results, on UpWork and tackled several challenging and complex projects. I took a break to pursue furthering my education and advancing my career while still performing small updates or projects for established clients. I have recently completed a Bachelor's degree in Industrial Management and Engineering, have received ASQ certifications, and pursued specialized training. I am back to be of service and look forward to hearing from you, hopefully work on some exciting projects, gain some knowledge, and make lasting connections.

I love MS Access and VBA, they've been my passion for over 25 years and I've become a pro at developing amazing apps and automating. My apps are top quality: user-friendly, very well thought out, packed with functionality yet simple to use, and are developed with an eye towards minimal clicking and thinking for the user. Automation and streamlining is a constant theme in everything I do. I believe that you and people in your company shouldn't do ANY manual repeating tasks because they can all be automated. I'm excellent at automation, I will ask a ton of questions to learn your workflow and will then develop an app that will do most of your work for you. I can also do anything you need when it comes to updating existing MS Access applications, automating your workflow, converting Excel sheets to MS Access applications, converting MS Access applications to SQL or to newer versions of MS Access, and writing Excel macros. I'm quick to reply to messages I'm easy to work with, no condescension here :) I have many libraries of reusable VBA code, forms, and reports, which greatly speed up development
