I'm a professional Software Engineer with experience with Microsoft and Google, living and working in the Seattle area.

I'm currently the lead engineer for Google Compute Engine. Before that, I worked on the Google Ad system to build tools to help advertisers pick the right keywords and bids, connect Google services to the public telephone network (PSTN) and defining and launching Google Talk.

My experience at Microsoft includes playing a key role in designing the next generation graphics system for Windows (graphics and media APIs for WPF). Prior to that I worked on MSHTML/Trident, the rendering engine for Internet Explorer for IE 4, IE 5, IE 5.5 and IE 6. I worked with the core data structures, parsing and drove performance across the product.

My education includes a BS in CS with High Distinction and Departmental Honors from Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, California. During college I worked with a local start up and did internships at Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois and at Microsoft in Redmond. The Microsoft internships included working with the Project team and the Windows NT OpenGL team.

I live in Seattle with my wife, a physician, and my son and daughter. I love photography and this side is being developed to showcase some of the landscape panoramics I've created.
