Leaving Microsoft

Hello Friends,

After six glorious years here at Microsoft I have decided to pursue a few start-up concepts based out of Vancouver.

In my first weeks at Microsoft, I blocked the largest software release in history - Windows XP SP3 - with a recall class bug just two days before RTM. This is truly an experience that only Microsoft could provide! An amazing start to an incredible career. I’ve worked on a broad set of great projects and technologies with the brightest and most interesting minds that I’ve ever encountered.  What a great experience!

It has been an honour to witness the transformation of Live Search into today’s Bing.com, and to facilitate that transformation through my efforts in test, operations, and infrastructure. I wish you all the best in your continued pursuit to revolutionize search - I truly believe our efforts at Bing are making the world a better place. 

I will miss all you fine people and this bustling atmosphere of engineering excellence.My last day will be December 13th, 2013.

Thanks for everything!
Please keep in touch!
