Michael is a Senior Developer with 27 years of CFML experience and an unshakable belief that boring code is usually good code. He's the developer who actually reads the docs, ships on Fridays without flinching, and has spent nearly three decades proving that the right tool for the job is whichever one gets the job done. He's also a relentless learner with an appetite for new tech, happily putting whatever he picks up to work across client projects and personal builds alike.
Off the clock, Michael trades servers for starships. He's a devoted fan of sci-fi on screen, from the classic cult favorites to the modern prestige reboots. He lives with his wife Diane and a small pack of dogs plus one extremely opinionated cat, all of whom are quite certain they're the protagonist.
Those animals are no longer just housemates. Michael has published the first couple of books in "The Porch Light Pack," a children's picture book series starring his real-life pets as the cast. Writing a children's book series based on his own pack has been a long-simmering ambition of his, and finally seeing his crew on the page, names intact and personalities turned up, has been every bit as rewarding as he hoped.
