As a followup from my "I'm not at Food52 anymore" post, I spent some time over the weekend putting down my thoughts on what kind of role and more importantly what kind of company I am looking to find.

This includes links to my resume and other such administrivia as well as bonus content linking to great articles by Angela Riggs and the every popular @mipsytipsy

Enjoy!

I am sad to say that I am no longer working at Food52 and am starting my search for a new role. My search is early but I know what drives me.

Simply put, solving technical problems and working with others to see them succeed is what brings me joy.

I am likely looking for a Principal/Staff level IC role at a company whose mission I can get behind. Remote-only. My recent experience is with Ruby on Rails, but I love learning new technology.

Any leads are appreciated!

Remember the sound of an old slide projector? A chewing gum machine? A coffee mill?

There’s snow on the ground where I am, reminded me of this flipbook I made into a GIF when I was a teenager.

Has anyone seen if MachinePix from the other site has made its way over?

“.. the omission of Thomas Jefferson’s enslaved chef, James Hemings, who was the mastermind behind many of America’s favorite dishes including macaroni and cheese. His erasure is part of a theme that’s permeated written history itself.”

This is one of my favorite pictures. It feels like it was taken yesterday… but it was taken in a Paris public garden nearly a hundred years ago. Everything feels modern: the composition, the casualness, the daring clothes, haircuts, and accessories.

The colors are original: this is an #autochrome, using the first process for color #photography invented by the Lumière brothers in 1903.

The women are unknown, but I can't help wondering how they fared a few years later in nazi-occupied Paris.

Latest for Volt. A bit about this new space, and some thoughts about #HigherEducation teams mulling over Twitter 2.0.

I’ve always enjoyed well designed manhole covers. Some cities have pretty plain ones, but others take the time and energy to make them pretty. It is nice to see art making a difference in purely practical items. #photography #cities
