Hello, I’m Mike. I am a husband, father of 4 awesome kids, and an experienced software creator currently working in the healthcare sector. Over the course of my professional career I’ve developed system software for medical equipment, automated test infrastructure, built and enhanced complex distributed systems, maintained mission critical production environments, contributed to system-wide architectural improvement, and served as a guide for others. It has been my great fortune to consistently work with, learn from, and serve excellent teams. Mission is vital to my engagement and I look to ensure that my future work makes a positive impact on this planet and the people that call it home.
