Top SchoolHansie Van Straaten is a Senior Software Developer with over 6 years of focused experience in C# application design and architecture, delivering both desktop (WPF, Windows Forms) and web (ASP.NET, WCF) solutions. He pairs strong relational database and ERD design skills across SQL Server versions with practical OOP discipline, having built distributable and in-house systems for automotive, manufacturing, warehousing, GIS and records/assets management.
