Now

Last updated July 2026.

I’m a senior engineering manager at Pantheon.

I run Cohort; a small, facilitated peer group for engineering leaders.

I’m on the board of RefactorGVL, a 501(c)(3) non-profit supporting the Upstate South Carolina tech community through events, education, and scholarships.

I speak at conferences and meetups about testing, async frameworks, and engineering practice. Past talks.

I write a newsletter with updates on my work and writing. Read past issues.

Books

The Maxims of Software Engineering

Conway’s Law. Chesterton’s Fence. Mythical Man-Month.

You may have heard of these invoked before. They’ve been articulated across the decades in books and blogs and conference talks. They are in the DNA and culture of software engineering; sayings, principles, and ideas that have survived.

This book is a compilation of them.
