About

My name is Matt and this is my blog. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

I’m 46 years old and live in Northern California. For the past 30 years, I have focused my career in Information Technology. I’ve been very lucky to have worked for great companies and great people who have given me the opportunities to learn a great deal on how to be successful in the IT field, but also in business. At the same time, I’ve also worked for poor managers, failed companies, and teams that didn’t value teamwork. My hope is to share what I have learned, and turn what I have learned, turn into something that helps others who may need it.

When I’m not functioning as a strategic advisor to my customers, I spend the time with my wife, Melissa, and my two children, Jameson and Liliana. They are what drives me to be a better husband, father, and just a better person overall. I do well, but in my mind, I fail at it more than I admit. This drives me to do better.

In my free time, whenever that might come, I game. I have a passion for it. I love video games for all that they bring to life. I love the stories, the exploration, and the conversations that sometimes come from online gaming. At the same time, I hate them. I’ll get more into why at some point, but the truth is I love gaming and all that it brings to the table.

This site is an opportunity for me to express myself creatively, assist other technologists with IT related challenges, share my family experiences, show off my terrible video games skills and passions, and maybe even meet new people.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by and drop a line if you would like.
