About

Husband, father, learner, and programmer. Trying to live life as it should be lived.

Formerly @ Stack Overflow, from 2013-10-28 thru 2023-12-7, as Staff Software Engineer, Tech Lead, and Community Advocate on PubPlat and Team Lead on Internal Dev. Anything that I authored on Meta sites between these dates was done so in this capacity.
