Hello World
Hello everyone. Welcome to my blog. The focus of this blog will be dynamic languages at Microsoft and specifically the Dynamic Language Runtime, IronPython, and IronRuby. I'll be talking about the design of various features as they take shape and how we're testing everything.
First, a little about me. I'm new to blogging (be gentle), but not new to MS where I've been a "Software Design Engineer in Test", SDET, for nearly 9 years. The first 7 of those years were spent on the Common Language Runtime, CLR, team where I worked on a variety of features over time including MS-IL, P/Invoke, and delegates.
Presently I'm a member of the Dynamic Language Runtime, DLR, team working to improve support for dynamic languages in .NET as well as to provide first-class language implementations of Ruby and Python.
Born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri. Graduated from the University of Missouri at Rolla. Moved to Redmond, Washington in 1999 where I've been working as a Software Development Engineer in Test for Microsoft ever since.
In my spare time I enjoy riding my motorcycle and am learning to play the violin and speak French.
