Time to #introduce myself.

Civic tech software engineer at CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services). Previously USDS at The White House.

I love tinkering with #homeassistant and home automation. I raise guide dogs with my wife. I contribute to open source projects as time allows.

In a past life, I was a blogger in the 9rules network. I was active with WordPress and was the author of the Google Analyticator plugin.
