I want to preempt this post by saying I don't have a budget for this per say, but I am willing to pay for your time.
I'd like to get small snippet solutions to pieces of my project as it progresses, so it's important that you are foremost fluent with VB, and REST web service calls specifically. I don't think Lightswitch experience is that necessary as long as you are strong in VB and Visual Studio (2013 preferred)
We wouldn't always have to meet of course but at first I would like to spend a couple hours together hammering out some priority code on this, which none of should be that complicated really.
This is a super quick post so if you have any questions feel free to just ask, I'll explain whatever I can.
Pay is just really to be determined. I don't need the whole consulting clock ride when I pay for your time. I'm looking to pay around 30-50/hr depending on your results and willingness to be effective.
