Bio

I'm not an open networker. Do not connect with me if we have not interacted previously. Are you a recruiter or salesperson? Read all of this! I'm not interested in relocating from Pittsburgh unless the opportunity is downright lucrative. Please note that I connect only with people whom I've met in person or with whom I've had extensive online interaction. I'm a software engineer and community builder with a penchant for journalism. I'm an aspiring polymath: my thirst for knowledge knows few topical bounds. I once upon a time aspired to teach high school computer science. I've been involved in non-profits since 2000 and have been running events yearly for 20+ years. What do I want to be when I grow up? Respectable. Portfolio: http://cad.cx/projects.html (probably out of date) Are you a RECRUITER? If so, please read the rest of this section. * I am not looking for a third-party recruiting agency. If I want an agency, I will reach out. A look at my history should indicate why. * I'd really only consider an opportunity that is in the greater Pittsburgh area or allows telecommuting. * Please do not bother to contact me with employment offers that *require* relocation, unless you absolutely must have me, only I am suitable for the position you wish to fill, and compensation is seriously no object! * Please note that I'm not actively pursuing opportunities for full-time employment, but I do view every opportunity that makes its way into my inbox. Please don't be offended if I don't respond or respond unpleasantly. * Please include the name of your client in your message. I won't go behind your back. * If you are able to find it, under no circumstances should you email my work address with anything unrelated to work. Thanks for respecting my inbox and workflow! * I am not your next IBM MDM expert.
