The Next Adventure

Since my last post a lot of things have changed! I was honored by the number of folks out in the community to reached out to me when I said I was looking for a job to give me leads, pass my name along or simply gave advice. Thanks to everyone! I’ve seen it work for other people in the past, and having gone through it now myself I can honestly say that building strong relationships in the community helps your career, period.

UPDATE [July 1st, 2015]: I have accepted a position with a new company and will be starting on July 20th. I’m pretty excited to get started with them and will post more about it right after I start! TLDR: I’ve been working with Red Gate on the Cerebrata team now for almost two years and have loved every minute of it, but I’m off to find a new adventure. Red Gate is an awesome company, and they are hiring!

Standing Desk Thoughts

A few weeks ago my Ergo Desktop Kangaroo Elite standing desk arrived. I ordered several weeks before but they are either working on a bit of a backlog or are having them created when they are ordered. When it came in I had tweeted that it arrived and at a couple of people asked what I thought about it. Since it’s now been a few weeks with it I thought I’d share in case someone else was thinking about a standing desk setup.
