Luckygirl: A Bite-Sized Podcast, Episode: 110 – Michael Dowden: software architect, author, and consultant.

From a young age, Michael Dowden had an entrepreneurial spirit. Doing odd jobs when he was young, to building his own consulting agency, to managing a successful startup, means he has lots of experience to share with small business owners.
As a software architect Michael focuses on the K.I.S.S. principle, keeping systems as simple as possible (but no simpler). Michael is passionate about lightweight frameworks in both Java and JavaScript ecosystems, often pointing out that Java is to JavaScript as Car is to Carrot. Since 1992 he has provided full-stack technology expertise to deliver usable, scalable, and secure web-based solutions to more than 60 companies, from startups to the Fortune 100.
As an MBA Michael focuses on solutions that provide true business value and always works to improve collaboration and communication between teams. He has been an entrepreneur his entire life, operating several businesses and founding 5 startups. He loves working with and advising other entrepreneurs and is always working on developing new ideas.
His book, “Programming Languages ABC++” has worked its way into the lives of my own children, and he continues to influence technologists with his new book on web accessibility. We recently met on an adventure mastermind experience in Antarctica (see www. AntarctiConf.com) and he shared his journey in entrepreneurship and how he and his family create their own luck by designing a business and a lifestyle that meets their needs.
Michael would be happy to:
• Help your company capture additional revenue from their unused parking
• Speak at your next conference or event
• Coach your software development team
• Develop a prototype web or mobile application for your startup
• Autograph your copy of Programming Languages ABC++
