On the eve of 2010, I’m pretty sure the best thing for everybody at this point is for me to introduce a new blog to the world. There, is that better? I tried to wait out this whole “blogging” fad, but I am weak and a little vain, so here you are.

A little about me. First of all, I really don’t like fragmented sentences. I don’t.

But seriously… I’m currently a Development Manager within the Microsoft Developer Division, managing the dev teams for .NET RIA Services, and the Managed Extensibility Framework. I’m in my 12th year as a dev at Microsoft, and previously worked on Dynamics NAV, Systems Center, Visio, and even Windows 2000. I’m also the creator of StyleCop, and thus am much loathed throughout the C# world. In my spare time I still occasionally dabble in StyleCop and release updates every so often.

I love to travel, and my family and I recently completed a three-year stint in Copenhagen. I’ve got the best kids in the world, and my favorite color is blue.

I hope you enjoy the blog! If not, here are some other blogs you’ll probably like a lot better:
