I’m currently a software engineer at Microsoft on the Engineering Engagement and Evangelism team. I work with partners on some of our newer technologies (such as Bot Framework and Cognitive Services), with a focus on improving the developer experience of our products. If you’re interested in my professional background, head over to LinkedIn.

I live near Seattle with my significant other, Emily Curtis, and my annoying dog, Norman. Without Emily, I would still be agonizing over a theme for this blog. Without Norman, I would have no one to blame for all the bad things that happen to me.
