Speaker, Mentor, Architect.

I am a software architect with a track record of creative and effective delivery of results for organizations who want to translate data into information.

With a background as a trainer I can explain complex technologies and concepts in easy to understand language. By the same token, I take complex business problems and express them in terms technology teams can use to derive solutions.

I write code that writes code and use automation/code generation to put in place processes that work reliably and technology products that serve a company's immediate information needs and are flexible enough to evolve as those needs change.

My experience spans startups—Architect at Harmony Software, acquired by Vigilance Inc. in 2002 and Business Applications Manager (and initial Java champion) at Success Factors, acquired by SAP in 2011—and large organizations, eBay, Microsoft, Intel, Realtor.com (Move Inc.)
