About Me

I'm the Practice Lead of the Information Worker Studio at Quick Solutions in Columbus, Ohio. I'm also a Father trying to remain sane while trying to build great software, herd my kids around, fix school lunches and handle the yardwork. (And roast great coffee!) All content on this blog reflects my deranged rambling opinions and should not be confused as being endorsed in any fashion by Quick Solutions, Inc. So there.
