I’ve spent my career making sure you never needed to know my name. When everything is working, no one calls. That is how I know I did my job.
- The spotlight belongs on users, clients, and employer. In that order. None exist without the other. Users must come first.
- My measure of success is silence. Users are happy, no issues surfacing, clients are happy, their employees are productive. My employer is happy because happy clients bring more clients.
- Problem solving, I start every engagement by understanding the process before touching it. What works. What doesn’t. Fix what’s broken before automating anything. Then I build toward a specific benefit, pause when I see things they haven’t thought of yet, present, refine, test with real users, and release only when proven.
- AniMap exists because some work is owed someone to carry it forward expanding those legacies by showing researchers how to find what was lost.
- A historian preserving stories so those places other historians write about, the people who made those places last are not forgotten.
The best way to know me is through my work. Not my boasting about my accomplishments. Users of my results are already doing that silently.
I don’t move mountains because I can. I move them because someone deserves to have it moved out of the way.
