I'm a Principal Product Manager for .NET at Microsoft. My team works on AI libraries and experiences, Aspire, ASP.NET Core and Blazor, .NET SDK fundamentals, Security, and .NET MAUI.
I've been building apps since 1996 and working in .NET since 2002. Over that time I've created digital experiences for web, environment, and mobile across a wide range of industries. After working with several startups (most notably ThisLife, acquired by Shutterfly in 2013), creative and marketing agencies, and a journey through enterprise healthcare, I formed my own company to focus on mobile application development. In 2017 I joined Microsoft to follow my passion of helping developers create better app experiences.
