Welcome to my blog. I hope you find some useful information here but there are a few things I’d like to make clear.
Originally I was going to keep the blog private because it's not uncommon for me to write about things I’m unfamiliar with. Writing helps me to understand. I blog about things that I’m learning as well as things I have difficulty in remembering, or solutions to everyday problems I encounter. Please use the information contained in the blog with care. I’ll try to put warnings where I think it is likely that I'm at risk of misunderstanding or misconception.
I'm am currently the Director of Engineering at Ticketmaster where I'm responsible for the Sports ticketing platforms.
I used to consider myself part of the what was known as the Alt .Net movement. I was - and still am - very keen on SOLID development principles and embraced techniques such as Dependency Injection (DI), Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP), and Unit testing and mocking a long time ago. I am a big fan of design patterns. At the architectural level I'm like everyone else - focused on microservices, DevOps and event-driven systems.
Anyway, read and enjoy. Happy coding.
