Hi, I’m Leaf.

I love learning, and I love sharing what I’ve learned to help developers level up.

I’ve been in tech for 25+ years, mostly as a developer. Good software can make people’s lives better.

As a principal developer, I started to shift my focus beyond writing code. I was improving my application and helping my team level up.

As an application architect, I worked on organization-wide improvements.

What’s next?

I’m writing a book to share what I’ve learned. I’d love it if you joined me on this adventure! Follow my book-writing journey on my mailing list. I’m also on Instagram, and I post here.

When I’m not writing or coding, you may find me out for a walk, listening to audio books, watching birds, or creating as an Art-o-Mat artist. The cute fella at the top of this page is one of my Mysterious Creatures.

Glad you’re here!
