how i work

how i approach the work

i'm detail-oriented and persistent, especially when a problem crosses boundaries between code, data, systems, and people. what we need out of software is often so complex, and i enjoy breaking that complexity down into pieces manageable for people and machines alike.

i'm also pretty handy with a drill.

why Page 1?

staying close to the work.

during more than fifteen years at TIBCO Software and Cloud Software Group, my work ranged from hands-on implementation and architecture to managing long-term customer relationships. working on both sides taught me how to understand the technical problem and the organizational context around it. i carry both into my independent consulting work.

i provide that work through Page 1 Technology Consulting, LLC. i'm currently based in Colorado, work primarily remotely, and travel when it makes sense for a project. Portugal is on the horizon.
