About

I used to have a much lengthier explanation of who I am, my experiences in technology, etc., but I’ve grown tired of maintaining it all. I used to be a software engineer, but I found myself in a position to start an architecture team at Quicken Loans so I became a leader.

I’m hoping to use this as a platform to start blogging about my experiences going from engineer to leader. Only time will tell how successful I am with that, but it’s a goal!

Some quick facts about me:

Contact

I love meeting new people, but since most people who contact me are recruiters I must insist you refrain.

If you want to talk technology, leadership, leveling up, F#, architecture, photography, bourbon, or just generally chat I’m more than happy! But if you’re looking to recruit me for the latest tech mashupurtnity, role I’m completely unqualified for, role I haven’t done in 10 years, or role in general…please feel free to move onto your next Google resume search.
