In observance of #PhotoMonday and the end of November, here are some highlights from the past month.

This week I turned in my Cisco badge after 8.5 years there with the MindMeld team, on top of 2 years with MindMeld, Inc before we were acquired by Cisco. Through more than a decade with the same team, in many ways it changed every year.
This was my first job out of grad school, and when I started, I could offer very little evidence that I could do anything very practical as a “Search Quality Engineer” at an “intelligent voice interfaces” startup.
