Hi, I’m Matt

I like to build stuff, and I like talking to people about building stuff.

I’ve been working in software since 2005 in various roles, including operational support, engineer, team lead, architect, manager, and even product manager.

I lean towards Backend, Systems, and Cloud Engineering. I’m also a database nerd. I’ve done a lot of work in Java and Node.js/Javascript, but I love lots of other languages.

These days, I manage engineers, do architecture, and lead technical projects. I love helping people grow while remaining deeply involved with technology.

You can learn more about what I’ve built in my Portfolio, on my LinkedIn, and on my Github. You can also find out more details about my work background on my resume.

I’m also a firm believer in the open web and open-source software. That’s why I have an old-fashioned blog on the open web instead of a medium account.

I work to live, but I also love my work. When living, I’m a dad to two kids and a husband. I run a lot. When I have time, I play guitar. I also enjoy photography but only get to do it a little beyond snapping photos of the family on the iPhone. But you can still see some of my older photos on Flickr.
