About me

I am a Generalist Software Developer.

Right now I work at ThoughtWorks.  It doesn't suck.

I worked at Rally Software for a good while.  Rally is now CA.

Before that was a very long time ago, so I'll leave you to my resume to figure it out.

More Tidbits:
  • Stickler about things that matter.  Like: code quality; testing; monitoring; and accountability.
  • At the moment I'm strongest in distributed systems running in the JVM, particularly the parts built using Spring, Java, Kotlin, and/or Clojure.
  • A good knowledge of Linux, CI, CD, and all that comes with the territory.
If you asked me what really interests me, though, you'd get some sort of an answer like:
  • Things that deal with unstructured text.
  • Computing with numbers. Preferably lots of them.
  • Visualizing and presenting information.
  • Organizing things (either automatically, or not).

Super-Brief Bio!

I studied Math and Comp Sci (with a large course load in Russian language) at Tufts (outside of lovely Baahston), then got my M.S. in Comp Sci (with a large load of Linguistics coursework - because I specialized in Computational Linguistics), at Ohio State in Columbus.

Now I live in Boulder, which I'd been visiting for years and years prior - finally decided it was time to just move, already.

For a number of years, I lived in Brussels, Belgium.  Those were formative years.

I was born and raised in Oregon.  I mean, before that whole Brussels escapade.

I also lived in Costa Rica (near San José, not at the beach or anything …) for a Load of Years.

Oh yeah - I lived in Budapest for a few months, where I was ostensibly studying math in the BSM program, but in reality was mostly learning Hungarian and railing around Europe.

I also lived and worked in Düsseldorf, Germany, for a couple years. That was AMS's fault (now absorbed by CGI)
