New Site Launched

Now that I've finally settled in to my new life in Vancouver, BC, I've decided to re-launch this site, although with a new look and new content.

I've decided to pursue software development work independently, rather than work somewhere, since I enjoy the freedom and the variety that being an independent contractor allows me.

I'm enjoying the work I've been doing recently - it's mostly cutting edge ASP.NET MVC development on a mixture of several private and public sites. Ironically, I've been contracting for the company in Waterloo that I used to work for, eSolutions. They're a group of really talented people and I enjoy working with them.

I've also recently become involved with a group of guys in the US, through a shared interest in cycling. I've been working with them (in a small way) on PedalR, a cool new site for cyclists looking to buy and/or sell cycling goods. We've got some exciting ideas and plans for the future.

Speaking of cycling, many of you know that Tamara, my dad, our friend Corey and I cycled across Canada this past summer. It was an epic journey, detailed here. I learned a lot from this adventure and have taken those lessons to heart. This coming summer is looking to involve some more cycling, although not to the same extent as last summer. Stay tuned for more information.

At any rate, it's good to be back and I look forward to posting more entries here as time goes by.
