Exciting News

Sometimes you have to do the scary thing. So here it is: I’m leaving Google at the end of the month.

Will post more about The Plan at a later date, but for now suffice it to say I’ll be working on some personal projects that I’d love to see if I could turn in to something, and exploring other options. And of course, travelling.

I feel really excited. About the freedom to do what I want, and live where I want for a while, about exploring what’s out there. Of course it’s been sad to say goodbye, but even if the plans are vague right now I do feel like I’m going towards something really compelling.

Over the next couple of months I’ll be speaking at iOSDevUK, GHC, and Oredev. If you’re there, let’s hang out!
