I am currently the Chief Systems Wrangler at Automattic, where I am responsible for running the globally distributed infrastructure that powers WordPress.com, Akismet, VaultPress, IntenseDebate, and others. Previously, I have worked for companies such as Laughing Squid, GigaOm, Electronic Arts, and Rackspace. After living on both coasts, I have returned to Texas, where I was born and raised. During the day, I do my best not to get too much BBQ sause on my keyboard; and at night….ok, well, it’s more of the same. When I’m not chatting on AIM, ICQ, Jabber, IRC, or reading about the latest and greatest in MySQL optimization, I enjoy traveling, attending and speaking at conferences, and playing a little lacrosse when I have time.
Your banner across the top caught my eye…you might enjoy my brother’s work at http://www.donpackwood.co.nz. He paints stuff like that.
Hey anytime your out of Rudy’s sauce you just let me know. I’m right here in Austin. I’m a Stubb’s person myself but I’ll go to Rudy’s for you.
Thanks again for fixing my contact problem.
I’d like to ask you a few questions about WordPress. Could you please contact me via email?
Thank you
