Past roles include computer lab system administrator at an educational institution, technical director of an entertainment group, and dev/sec/ops lead for an international publishing company.

My current focus, outside of contracts, is the Marathon Manufacturing Methodology, a functional guide to sustainably cultivating your sphere of influence (and infrastructure), inspired by the KonMari method and Agile.
