Job Stuff

I’m a Senior Tech Fellow and the Chief Software Safety Engineer for The Boeing Company. I spend most days trying to figure out how we can develop and verify safety-critical airborne software in more robust, reliable, and efficient ways. Right now I’m working remotely from home in Iowa; we are planning a relocation to Everett, Washington, for summer 2027.

Family Stuff

Oldest kid is about to graduate with a Mechanical Engineering degree from SDSMT. Middle kid is studying Accounting at the University of Nebraska. Youngest kid is a junior in high school. Wife and I are trying to figure out when we got old.

Church stuff

I’m a vestry member at our local Episcopal Church. The ECUSA has been a great fit after a few years away from Evangelicalism.

What I’m reading

Go look at The Bookshelf.

Running

Last year I got back into running after losing 70 pounds. Turns out the knees and ankles are a lot happier at the lower weight! Last year eased me back into it, and I’ve been treadmill running (ugh) over the winter to keep up conditioning. I can’t wait to get outside and run again once it warms up!

Projects

I edit and sometimes co-host our church’s podcast, Church Matters. It’s a fun little side project, and we’ve had some conversations with some fascinating people.

On the side I’ve got another cross stitch going, keeping with the mid-century modern album cover theme. I’m just about tapped out of S. Neil Fujita’s album art, so now I’m working on Mambo for Cats by Jim Flora.
