Code209 provides IT consulting and workflow automation for small businesses and nonprofit organizations that don't have a formal IT department. With five decades of experience, I understand the unique challenges these organizations face—limited budgets, competing priorities, and the need for practical solutions that work.
I specialize in taking manual, error-prone processes and transforming them into automated, reliable systems. Whether it's migrating from spreadsheets to proper databases, automating financial reporting for churches, or building custom warehouse management systems for retail operations, I bring both technical expertise and real-world business understanding to every project.
My flagship project—the Cost Less Foods Warehouse Management System—exemplifies this approach. What began as a Microsoft Access solution in 2006 has evolved into a modern Django/Python application with over 70,000 lines of code, operating continuously for nearly two decades. This same patient, practical approach works whether you're a church managing donations, a small retailer tracking inventory, or a nonprofit streamlining operations.
