About Joe
Owner of a custom software development agency that does full life-cycle development. With over 30 years of experience in software development, I have done a diversity of projects that have spanned a range of sizes and industries.
Recently, I have specialized in trucking logistics software. I have a new product, Dump Truck Dispatcher, that I have spun off into its own company. Dump Truck Dispatcher (https://dumptruckdispatcher.com) started as custom software for a client (I kept the IP) and just recently, we have started marketing it more aggressively. The product has some revenue and provides a solution to the dump truck service, concrete, and asphalt industries. There are a few competitors in the space, but Dump Truck Dispatcher goes far beyond what those products accomplish.

Work Experience
Owner of custom software development shop, software architect, Software developer
Walling Info Systems LLC
May 2002 - December 2016
Provide custom software development to companies to help them run more efficiently and profitably. I am responsible for business development and overall development management in addition to doing the architecture and development for the various projects. The most recent projects have been using C# and the ASP.NET MVC framework and Entity Framework, with SQL Server as the database. It has also required using JQuery, JavaScript, and HTML 5 using a responsive layout with Bootstrap so that the same applications can be used on a computer, tablet, or desktop. This type of development gives you a good bang for your buck. Especially since having a mobile friendly site is so important. I am also working on a Github project called ReactAdvantage. It is a React starter kit that helps SaaS startups get a head start on development. See https://github.com/joewalling/reactadvantage for more information.
