A fond farewell and new begining

neudesic logoToday is a very exciting day for me; tomorrow I begin a new chapter in career as I join Neudesic as a Principal Consultant II.    For years I have listened to the community talked about the amazing talent Neudesic has attracted, and I am so very excited to be a part of that team.  I started my career as a consultant, and am honored to have n an opportunity to return to that type of development.  I have never been as passionate about a technology as I am about Silverlight.  I am excited to be a part of an organization that sees the great opportunity that lies within that technology.

Last week marked the end of a long and exciting adventure.  For those of you who know me, you know that more than three years ago I was asked to join Terralever to help them grow into the company they have become today.  During those crazy three years, I have had the honor to lead some amazing people.  Terralever’s development team has some of the most bright, passionate, devoted developers I have every worked with.  Their ability to be agile, yet innovative, never ceased to amaze me. 

All that made a hard decision even harder.  Leaving Terralever was bitter sweet.  On one hand I am excited to join an organization focused on development .  On the other hand, I will certainly miss the people and the amazing project I have had the opportunity to be a part of.  I owe my new found love of Silverlight to Terralever, and will forever be grateful.  I wish all the best to Terralever and their great people.

    Congratulations Joel!

    I find I have had to reinvent myself about every 5 years during my career. At least I should have that often… sometimes I got caught out and had to hurry up the transition :)

    Good luck at Neudesic… you’re in good company!
