ABOUT ME
Living Life, Loving to Code
Living Life, Loving to Code
I am an Ellucian Banner Technical Expert and provide support to Universities and Colleges working in the Ellucian Banner Ecosystem from Integrations to Implementations programming in a variety of different technologies and tech stacks including, but not limited to, Groovy on Grails, SQL, PL/SQL, APIs, Java, etc.
I worked at the University of Montana as a Programmer Analyst for over 7 years. I spent most of my time there in SQL and PL/SQL, but I branchied into UI/UX work in JavaScript. I also helped maintain our ERP solution which is programmed in a Java based MVC similar to Spring or Groovy/Grails.
I teach a C++ course at Missoula College of the University of Montana as well as authoring online video courses at PackT Publishing.
I am also a Freelance Web Developer with extensive knowledge in HTML/CSS/JS including frameworks like jQuery, ReactJS, and Angular. I consider myself an intermediate Ruby on Rails developer and I enjoy writing solutions in this tech stack. I have also worked with Joomla, Wordpress, Drupal, and other CMS platforms as well as dabbled with several personal projects in RoR, Groovy/Grails, Django and similar Full Stack MVCs.

I have been evolving in my JavaScript to the point that I am writing a program in JS at the University of Montana that is very complex and utilizes BabelJS, Bootstrap, and jQuery. I would say I am on the Intermediate to Expert level.

This was one of the first languages I learned in College. I haven't had a chance to use it as much as I'd like, but I have done a few small projects. It is one of my favorite languages to program in.

Jonathan is a patient developer and was able to get the job done ahead of schedule and under budget. He was able to sleep on this complex bug and wake up with a working solution, I really appreciate your help and wouldn't haven been able to solve this alone. I had spent countless hours on stack exchange and discord trolling for help but this was worth it.
