the Confluence of
​art + Logic

One might think of art and logic as two rivers.
​In my life, those rivers met and flow together – a confluence of art and logic. 
​
A tribute to the mingling of art and logic,
​starting at the source...
​
A Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from University of Arizona, cascaded into a small art business.
​
​"John's work was phenomenal on many projects... John is easy to work with and has great ideas even under tight deadlines."  
​ - Ed Ward, Director - Production, EnsembleIQ
" John was working at his successful art business during the day, supporting our family, and going to night school to learn software development." 
- Laura Nyquist ​
Then Ingenius, a subsidiary of Comcast, made me an offer I could not refuse. 
"From the moment I met John I was immediately impressed with his programming skills, creativity and professionalism.
I enjoyed working with him at Ingenius and on a few projects since. He's a top-notch guy."
​ - Gary Rosenzweig, Producer & Host at MacMost
"on time and under budget"
"John was handed the enormous task of single handedly building version 2 of the What On Earth program. Despite many complications and quite a bit of "feature creep" he was able to complete the project on time and under budget." 
 - Rob Martin, Owner at Lightbender Creative
​
​"John consistently exhibited the leadership, teamwork, skills, and exceptional effort that personifies the qualities required for success. While developing What On Earth 2.0, John not only committed the time and effort required to deliver on time and under budget, but accomplished his tasks in a manner which demonstrated the principles of the "team" culture."  
- Dave Workman, Entrepreneur 
​
For two years I enjoyed working as Senior Software Engineer & Project Lead, until Comcast shut down Ingenius. It was an honor to be part of their small shut down team, and I was there until the last day they closed their doors. Happily, Current Works hired me for 2 years of projects as their Senior Software Engineer/Project Lead. 
In the category of literary arts, author of a couple books...
"a rare combination to find"​
"John and I worked closely together via telecommuting to create 2 successful software products. John brings a variety of skill sets into a project that is a rare combination to find. He is an outstanding programmer, but he brings design and layout skills as well. If I had a job opening that would utilize his skill sets today I would hire John in a blink of an eye."
 - Rick McGuire, Dir. of Technology at District 127
"most talented"
"John is quite possibly the most talented rich-media developer I've had the privilege to work with in recent memory. John has a passion for combining his interests in digital fine-art, various animation techniques and his technical development skills." "In addition to John's artistic and technical abilities, he is a joy to work with and communicates technical concepts in a clear, easy to understand manner."
 - Jason Lampitt, Creative Vision, Digital Transformation, AI Solutions Architect
"He has great programming skills as well as creative and artistic abilities. " 
"While doing team programming he was always open to new ideas and willing to make the changes needed to get things right. His work ethic meant I always knew I could count on his part of the project being done when promised."
"John can offer many varied skills to a project along with a can-do attitude."
 - Ed Fenner, Mgr, CS Technologies
"John is a very talented graphic designer,
as well as a knowledgeable and versatile developer."
"We worked together on a huge project with several challenges, and his talent and knowledge made it possible for us to achieve a very unique and innovative design. John is also a thoughtful person and a pleasure to work with on a team. He was always patient and supportive as we moved into the implementation phase of our project, and willing to make sure I had everything I needed to make all the pieces fit together smoothely.
