About Chad Francis

I have a passion for software and how it can improve lives of people in everyday ways. Having over 30 years’ experience developing Software and Technology. I have come to love the ever evolving software industry and how it adapts to solve problems. Taking a software problem and creating a viable business solution is what lets me enjoy my work. I have a passion for making solutions that work in the real world, that take into account the costs of business and the need to increase revenue for my company. I enjoy managing technical teams and using the strengths of a group to come up with unique solutions. My passion is to bring technology and software to markets and places that haven\'t yet seen the power and efficiency that can be created with the right software and hardware.
