John Liu’s Summary
Over eight years of .NET development as a software consultant.
.NET WinForms and Web Application Developer, MS-SQL Server database design, SharePoint solutions, Project Manager and Team Lead in a variety of projects across multiple sectors.
Follower of agile methodologies, unit-testing, heavy re-factoring, fast turn-around release cycles. Extremely technical and loves producing software.
Broad range of experience in custom software development, face-to-face meetings with clients and stakeholders, high level architecture design, framework development, down to rolling-up the sleeves and diving into code.
I believe in setting realistic client expectations. Don't promise the moon when it can't be delivered. Be honest up front.

At the end of the dot-com era, we finished our portal website but was unable to find funding to continue the company. The owners (who remain close friends) decided to cut their losses and close the company.
It was still great experience, and to this day, I admire people who have the courage to start and run their own company.
