Q: What would you say is your greatest strength?
A: Putting projects together; making the impossible possible and motivating people to act. I am a software architect but also I don't just manage - I lead by example as a senior developer.

Q: How best can you describe your code?
A: Well-formed. Documented. Clean.  I'm not a fast programmer but my code is solid.  Solid code leads to fewer errors, easier to change and cheaper maintenance.  Fast, sloppy code is nearly never ending with problems.

Q: What would you say is your biggest weakness?
A: Devotion.  I don't give up easy even when I should sometimes.

Q: What do you see as being your career / mission?
A: To lead developers & engineers to create worthwhile product while expanding everyone's foundation of ability - including my own.

Q: Why don't you specialize and publicize your Microsoft Development abilities?
A: Because I think that's a given and it's easy to find; it's more difficult however to find engineers with experience in other foundations.

Q: What will you do once you're a pilot?
A: For me it's more about doing something I though I would never be able to do back when I was nearly blind.  But basically, I will just fly around as time allows, when not at work.

Q: Do you have experience in business finance?
A: Do you mean can I write a PPM or prepare a set of projections or guide an investor through filling out an investor questioner, or prepare a department budget, yeah, but it as a choir, not a life goal.

Q: What is the largest team you have managed?
A: 16.  For agile development this is a bit large, so I try to establish 3-5 person teams max.
