Matt Van Horn

Matt Van Horn is a Sr. Consultant with Capax Global. In his current role, Matt is responsible for working with clients to produce applications to serve our clients needs.

Matt, a seasoned developer with proficiencies in a wide-array of programming languages and platforms, focuses on creating flexible and dynamic code tailored to the specific needs of customers. Matt is an experienced presenter, regularly speaking at Usergroup meetings and Code Camps.

Matt has produced unique and innovative solutions to add complete transparency to the casino gaming process. These solutions are relied upon by both small regional land casinos as well as the on-sea casinos from some of the world’s largest cruise lines. Matt has recently been focusing on XAML and has produced several state of the art products. Among them the first two 3rd party developed shells for Microsoft's LightSwitch and a Visual ETL Solution that renders Excel Documents in Silverlight.

Matt’s philosophy of ‘rapid development’ focuses on creating fluid software that can handle a wide array of tasks with minimal modifications. Instead of strictly following written specifications and deliverables, Matt believes in working closely with his clients.

Unlike many developers who all too often develop more specs than applications (and more questions than answers), Matt uses his unique style of rapid development to produce tangible results alongside the people who will utilize the completed system. In this manner, Matt feels that it is possible to guarantee both system performance and client satisfaction. This dedication to client satisfaction has taken Matt on-site to projects in Nicaragua, France, and across the Atlantic Ocean.
