Known as a collaborative "Nice Guy," he excels at translating operational needs into test plans and production-safe code, and has a track record of building web dashboards and automation that simplify complex production testing. Based in Bothell, WA, he combines a pragmatic operations mindset with developer craft, making him adept at both debugging outages and shipping user-facing features.
