My name is Rob. I am a software architect, developer, Pluralsight author, husband, and a father. I currently work for Cisco as a senior technical leader. I've been bouncing around different roles and industries building neat products and services for the past 20 years.
I am experienced in most of the Microsoft technology stacks and languages. I have been professionally developing with .Net since version 1.0, and before that with VB and MFC C++.
I am skilled at building enterprise data models and databases. Third normal form is not my final form. I love databases, document databases, and am especially in love with global scale databases from cloud providers. CosmosDB I heart you.
I really love JavaScript. Yes, JavaScript. I've worked in most front-end frameworks from Durandal, AngularJS, Angular, and React. Even frameworks like ASP.Net WebForms through ASP.Net MVC to their .Net Core equivalents. Node and I get along really well. We're kind of a package deal.
Lately I have been primarily developing in Golang creating micro-services and supporting embedded device code. More on the micro-service side but still fun. I have my favorite languages, but I tend to find myself as a polyglot programmer more often than not.
In all this time I have picked up some neat tips and tricks I want to share with you in this blog.
