On his very first professional software project, Jesse made creative use of web technologies to integrate a hoary legacy business system with the latest commercial UPS/USPS shipping software, and from there he was hooked. Since then, he has been the primary developer on wide range of web projects, and played critical roles within add-hoc teams on many others. He is passionate about long-term software development strategy and design, disciplined about automated testing and maintenance, and cautious when fishing from the stream of shiny new technology. Jesse's technical skills are complimented by a focus on clear, thoughtful communication and effective collaboration.

Prior to founding Rasika Consulting in July 2013, Jesse was the Principal Web Consultant for NPower Northwest, where he developed websites and web-related tools for dozens of Washington State non-profits.
