My work experience spans the hospitality, telecommunication and even high frequency stock trading industries.

I am currently offering my services as a systems analyst / consultant with excellent knowledge of technologies on all tiers and a focus on the OPERA PMS system. 

I have worked with OPERA since before it was released in 2001. Starting in the Micros Development office in Naples Florida, progressing to the Opera Professional Services team and finally as an in dependent consultant.

While in Naples, I was lucky enough to create the first version of the OPERA Gaming Interface, as well as many other products that either integrated within OPERA or extended it's capabilities.

As a consultant I have helped big and small companies learn more about integrating with OPERA.

I also serve as an OPERA SME (Subject Matter Expert) , in particular on the technical side. Able to understand, debug, teach and develop for the many interface, reporting and exporting features.
