When I'm not sailing a sea of cubicles, pursuing the hedonic delights of representing my neighborhood to the home owners association, or trying to get my child to see the wisdom of outerwear, I can sometimes be found hacking away at a project inspired by unquenchable curiosity about the deeper mysteries of -- not just computer science per se, but of how we as programming animals relate to and work with those towering edifices of applied mathematics we like to call code-bases. That and an old academic catalog are pretty much responsible for the "booze-tools" module (which was named as an oblique pun on "Java").

I currently work for a large bank in the corporate investing line of business. Officially, I manage some junior programmers and spend the rest of the time on "software engineering", such as it is. I also run a local-office knowledge-sharing community and loudly advocate for developer quality-of-life, which connects intimately with all the things our employers and clients care about.

I am inordinately interested in programming languages. My current focus during free time is Sophie. Previous long-running projects have inspired some of the more domain-specific things you see below.

I have not always been officially on the books as a programmer everywhere I've worked, but virtually everywhere I fall into designing, build, and support information systems.

For example, some time in a project-controls role (think costs, budgets, schedules, and detailed forecasts all under change management and compared against historical norms) inspired me to explore matrix-oriented programming and declarative hierarchical report formatting.

• How to be an AWS Solutions Architect.

Earth-shattering project ideas. Resumes. Things in between.

• Ideas that will make the world a better place.
• Any of the repositories you see here.
• Spreading the Gospel of CUPID, which seems to mesh well with my DQoL philosophy.

My GitHub username is also my gmail identity.
