I’m a Senior Developer Advocate at Auth0, and I like to work on various technologies. I’ve developed software for all sorts of platforms, from CD-ROM and the PalmPilot to my current area of focus, mobile phones, IoT devices, and AI. When I’m not looking for strange new platforms to write software for, I’m playing a strange old instrument — the accordion!

I have over 20 years of experience as a software engineer and technical author. Throughout my career, I've used several programming languages and technologies for the projects I was involved in, ranging from C# to JavaScript, ASP.NET to Node.js, Angular to React, SOAP to REST APIs, etc.

In the last few years, I've been focusing on simplifying the developer experience with Identity and related topics, especially in the .NET ecosystem.

I've been working as a software engineer since 2014, particularly as a backend engineer and doing system design. I consider myself a language-agnostic developer but if I had to choose, I like to work with Ruby, Python, and Elixir.  

After realizing how fun it was to create content and share experiences with the developer community I made the switch to Developer Advocacy. I like to learn and work with new technologies. 

When I'm not coding or creating content you could probably find me going on a bike ride, hiking, or just hanging out with my dog, Dasha.
