I'm a community manager for Stack Exchange, following two years of service as a community elected moderator on Stack Overflow. Beyond that, I'm:
- A husband and dad
- A competent programmer
- A world traveler
- Not a teapot, and I have proof!
I'm still into programming for learning and my own pet projects, while taking on broader participation within the global developer and knowledge seeking communities in general. Wherever people prefer simply helping each other get better rather than just talking about what they do, you'll find me interested.
