Welcome! I'm Andrew, a software craftsman based in the upper Midwest. Feel free to learn more about me on my about page.

I love to build things. By day, I work as a Senior Engineer and Team Lead. In the evenings, you'll find me tackling projects in the garage—or sometimes building a new garage altogether. Once the house is quiet and everyone's tucked in for the night, I write and reflect on the day's learnings.

Here you'll find my thoughts on technology—from Azure and cloud infrastructure to .NET, Gatsby, and data engineering. I also write about career growth, teamwork, and leadership, sharing lessons learned from the trenches. Whether it's time management strategies, presenting effectively, or navigating the complexities of software culture, I aim to share practical insights from real experience.

For me, there's no such thing as being content. There's always something new to learn or explore. It's why I don't sleep well—my mind never rests. Fortunately, I've found my calling in software, where nearly all the tools I need sit right here at my desk, opening up endless opportunities to dive deeper into whatever captures my curiosity.
