What Jeremiah does

Business Analyst and Developer with a strong focus on process improvement and implementation of best practices for the small and medium sized business. Using a mix of Microsoft and other technologies to leverage the greatest return on the IT bottom dollar while still maximizing performance.

What Jeremiah does best

As long as I can remember, regardless of the outcome, I have always asked, "How can I be better?" I bring this same attitude and desire to improve to business. Isn't that the point of technology? Allow us to do more with less? Of course, we see that this often turns out not to be the case.

What does Jeremiah need?

I need more contacts in the greater Puget Sound area. A good group of friends and co-workers to exchange ideas with.
