30 years on the Microsoft stack. Started writing .NET when the framework was still in beta in 2001.
Founded Tempest Telecom in 1996. We built the first Internet roaming service to provide access on all 7 continents, and a unified AAA platform that combined voice, dialup, WiFi, and satellite into one experience. The 2+ petabyte video platform that came out of that work is where I learned that query plans behave non-linearly at scale, and why backup strategy is architecture.
Founded Agave Information Solutions in Scottsdale in 2008. Today we modernize legacy .NET Framework applications onto modern .NET 10/9/8 with AI-ready architecture, design databases that need to handle real volume, and ship the kind of senior-engineering work most boutique shops outsource.
I write here about .NET migrations, EF Core gotchas, SQL Server query plans, AI integration into legacy stacks, and the lessons from running production systems at scale for a long time.
