Now

This is my now page, inspired by Derek Sivers. It's a snapshot of what I'm focused on at this point in my life.

Current focus

I have two main focuses right now:

1. Provide for my family while spending as much time as possible with them
2. Help developers around the world navigate the rapidly changing landscape of AI engineering and its impact on traditional web and software development

Personal

I'm having a great time with my wife, son, and dog in the Pacific Northwest. Currently spending a lot of time playing with my son at parks, playgrounds, and out in nature whenever the weather permits. His language is developing rapidly and it's a ton of fun to watch.

Creative work

Over the last year, I've gotten back into writing and coding. I rebuilt this website with Astro, wrote a series on building a developer motion and a series on preventing and managing burnout using a progress system, and am now working on building an AI-powered knowledge work pipeline. I'm also sending more updates out via my newsletter, so be sure to sign up below.

Day job

I'm currently working as the Director of Developer Relations at Writer, an enterprise AI platform, where I lead a team of Developer Experience (DX) engineers. I oversee all of our developer docs and SDKs. I also co-lead all of our technical and developer marketing alongside the Product Marketing team. I recently oversaw all of the engineering and marketing for our SDK 2.0 release and our LangChain and Instructor integrations. I also led a cross-functional team in sponsoring AI Engineer Summit.

Learning

Here's what I'm currently learning:

• Diving deeper into AI engineering, especially evals and inference
• Scratching the surface of Machine Learning and Deep Learning
• Slow productivity
