I lead a team of evangelists at the Death Star who believe in the innovative web. I clawed and scratched my way to Microsoft so I could be a part of the most intense software company on the planet. I have been here almost 10 years. I started off spreading developer love before Steve Ballmer screamed “Developers! Developers! Developers!” and still evangelize the greatness of what the web has to offer. I have worked with Fortune 500 companies, mid-sized companies and startups build amazing things on the web. They all had something in common; they all believed that the web was a great place for innovation. I believe in that. I am also helping drive great events such as our kid sister – MIX, and Microsoft’s Professional Developers Conference. My free time (what there is of it) is filled to the rim with my wife (who is awesome), babies (kitties and a pup), great wine, strong coffee… and deathcore and metalcore heavy metal music.
