I'm a Group Engineering Manager at Microsoft. I've been working here since 2002, and I've been a manager since 2008 or so.
I currently manage the Developer Experience team for Azure Cosmos DB (we make the SDKs, the portal experience, etc). Previously I've worked on a variety of developer tools and libraries including: ASP.NET Core, Orleans, SignalR, Blazor, Windows Forms, MSBuild, Roslyn, and Visual Studio. I was one of the primary API designers for the Roslyn project, and helped with the process of making it Open Source.
I'm international conference speaker, having presented at tech conferences in 8 countries across 4 continents.
Outside of work, I am a marathon runner, and ice hockey player. I'm re-married, and have 3 adult children and 1 teen step-child. I like to read science fiction and fantasy books. I like cheese, beer, and chocolate chip cookies.
