I went back to college in my mid-twenties and, because I "liked computers", took a gamble by majoring in computer science. I modestly thought I had a knack for it and was thrilled to graduate with my BA in Computer Science after four semesters (and a doubling of my student loan debt). I love writing but hate writing in the third person. Why should I write as if I was only the omnipresent but hands-off narrator of my own experiences?

My career trajectory has been weird. I jumped from a SaaS web app on a Java stack, to an old-school client/server desktop application on .NET, to a completely homemade ETL system in an unmanaged private cloud, to a bleeding edge ETL green field project in Azure.

Along the way, I've written a lot of stuff. Most of it has gotten lost or buried so I started this site to prevent that.

I got frustrated with how often I had to retrace my research so my articles tend to be relatively short, full of samples and links to references, and focused on atomic aspects of my solutions. I hope I'm not the only one who gets use out of this.
