He has worked in myriad industries including video games, waste management, biometric security, finance, cloud platforms, and even search and rescue drones. He has presented several times at Apple's WWDC and dozens of other conferences, and written over 18 books on various topics including C#, cloud native patterns, Go, and even Apple's Cocoa.
