Coming Home Via Chicago
I am honored and humbled to announce that I have accepted a position as Senior Programmer at Palantir. My first day will be June 30. It is an amazing opportunity for me to dive deeper into Drupal and get more involved with the community while working with an immensely talented group of people. I'm staying in Seattle, however I will return home to Chicago periodically to satiate my homesickness and engage in nerf wars with my new colleagues.
Heading into the CMS evaluation process for NWsource.com a couple years ago, I had gotten to a point where I was pretty un-interested in technology and programming. It was just what I did for a living, because I was good at it and it paid decently. Working with Drupal, and specifically the Drupal community, changed all that. I drank the kool-aid in a big way, and with this new opportunity I feel totally jazzed at the prospect of kicking it up a notch. My thanks to everyone who has helped, taught, encouraged and/or tolerated me along the way. You're all awesome.
