Hi folks,
I’m a software engineering leader, technology writer, and currently the CTO at Imprint. I’ve worked at Carta, Calm, Stripe, Uber, a few other places, and cofounded a defunct iOS gaming startup with Luke Hatcher, Monocle Studios. I’ve written three books: An Elegant Puzzle (2019), Staff Engineer (2021), and The Engineering Executive’s Primer (2024). This blog, Irrational Exuberance, has been around since 2007, and I’ve done some public speaking as well.
Further back, I grew up in North Carolina, studied computer science at Centre College in Kentucky, and spent a year in Japan on the JET Program.
For more detail, check out some of my recent years in review: 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021.
