“Mark Twain described his mother as a genuinely good person, whose soft heart pitied even Satan, but who had no doubt about the legitimacy of slavery, because in years of living in antebellum Missouri she had never heard any sermon opposing slavery, but only countless sermons preaching that slavery was God’s will. With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil — that takes religion.”

— From a talk by Steven Weinberg, Nobel laureate in Physics

Software development — Full-stack web and mobile

I am a veteran developer with decades of experience on multiple platforms. I favor small, fast-moving teams with good developers, clear code ownership, lightweight methodologies, and little separation between developer and user. I work remotely whenever possible. I do contract work though my consulting business, but I am open to a permanent position, if the opportunity is right.
