Lifecycle involved building a prototype, scoping development requirements, and creating pre-development documents. § Proposed a workflow process, showing who are the players (Client, Account Managers, Project Managers, Developers) and who is responsible for what deliverables (Requirements, Functionality, Project Plan, Documentation, Website). § Clinical Oncology Programs Intranet – Managed team of developers to leverage a Calendar tool, build a User Groups Management tool, and provide upload functionality.

Provided vendors with technical requirements on designing the flow of data between imports and updates. Nov 2000 to June 2001 Nethod-Euro Interactive, Inc New York, NY Senior Programmer § Designed and developed a healthcare intranet with the following major sections: Roster (a team directory), Calendar (manageable list of events), Resources (source of brochures and other marketing materials).
