About Me

My journey as a software engineer

I started Appelt Digital because I'm passionate about creating software that solves real problems for real people. What drives me most is understanding the users behind the systems I build and crafting solutions that genuinely make their work easier.

Over 14+ years in software engineering, I've specialized in .NET technologies and Microsoft Azure, working on everything from small MVPs to large-scale enterprise systems. I believe in writing clean, maintainable code and building architectures that stand the test of time.

Through my years in the corporate world, I've seen too many great ideas get lost in PowerPoint presentations and endless meetings. I founded Appelt Digital to work differently—to move from idea to execution quickly, focusing on delivering real value rather than just talking about it.
