Firsties!
Oh, wait … this is the sort of thing where you awkwardly talk about yourself in the third person. Right? OK. Ahem. (I’ll probably just name-drop.)
Mike currently works for Pivotal Labs, but also works on his own questionably-successful software business, Pharos, in his spare time.
Mike is “the other Nokogiri guy”, a co-author of Nokogiri with seattle.rb’s Aaron “tenderlove” Patterson. (See? Told you I’d be name-dropping. I’m terrible like that.)
Mike’s been coding professionally for almost longer than Pat Najakima has been alive, which doesn’t necessarily make him good (although he’s not bad), but probably correlates better with “grumpy, pessimistic naysayer.”
Still here? You can always find more about this exciting dude at http://mike.daless.io/
