I'm a software technical writer. I usually work as a
MercenaryAnalyst, helping the design team capture design and implementation in text form. I am especially interested in software-process patterns.
I work for Google. Before that, I worked for Oracle, which bought
PeopleSoft;
RogueWave, bought by QuoVadX; Robertson, Stephens, & Company, an investment bank bought by Bank of America the week I joined them;
ParcPlaceDigitalk, which bought (and later became)
ObjectShare;
RothWell, Incorporated, which was bought by Perot Systems; Apollo Computer, which was bought by
HewlettPackard; and Prime Computer, which bought (and later vanished into)
ComputerVision. Terrifying, isn't it?
The correct mail address for me (now not employer-dependent) is
