Mike Hoeffner took the DeskPort concept and turned it into a practical, functioning application. His early background includes that as an integration consultant for Trilogy, focusing on the telecommunications and automotive industries. He later managed an explosive-growth development team at CarOrder.com, a Trilogy spin-off.

He has more recently been focused on a variety of domains including enterprise business planning, peer-to-peer recruiting, and institutional investing. He is also the developer of the widely-used MileTracker frequent flier aggregation tool, which is one of the components of DeskPort. Mile Tracker simultaneously consolidates balances, transactions, and other account information from over 80 sources.

Among other things, Mike has an interesting hobby in trying to improve the lives of stray animals, whether by neutering/spaying dozens of feral cats or finding homes for abandoned puppies and escaped birds.

Hoeffner was a computer sciences graduate from Duke University and can be contacted at mike@deskport.biz.
