Not to get maudlin, but it is fun to think about accomplishments over the years. The days are long, but the years are short, and I can’t believe I’ve been working in software development for more than two and a half decades.
My top professional accomplishments include:
- Writing a book for a known publisher
- Co-founding a startup that is still alive and kicking (5+ years after I left)
- Running my own consulting business for about 8 years, and making a decent living from it
- My time at FusionAuth; I’ve worn a bunch of different hats with real impact on the direction and culture of the company
- Presenting at marquis conferences like Identiverse
- Co-organizing the Boulder Ruby for about 5 years
- Supporting the website of one of the biggest sporting events in the world
- Keeping this tech blog running for over 20 years
