Developer, musician, actor, philosopher and wit.

Note to recruiters: Thanks for considering me, but I'm really not interested right now.
I am currently working as a senior dev at OpsLevel. I have been a staff developer and manager at Shopify, and a core developer of Wireshark. I helped design and write part of Sarama, a Golang client library for Apache Kafka. I am responsible for a couple of tiny pieces of Linux kernel code. My other projects include:
Most of the above list I consider "done", but that doesn't mean unmaintained. I am happy to accept pull requests or bug reports for any of my projects (including the ones listed on GitHub but not big/interesting enough to be listed here).
I am not a frequent speaker on the conference circuit, but I've done a few:
I have written a few academic papers on computer science topics, mostly as coursework for my degree. Unless otherwise specified they have not been formally published.
On my own time (never reviewed in any form), I designed an interesting little cryptographic e-voting system. I know only enough about cryptography to know how likely it is that this is terribly flawed in some way, so take it with a grain of salt.
I spend a great deal of my free time making music in one form or another. You can also find me on stage occasionally (usually in musicals or operettas). In the winter, I am a recreational curler.
