A fond farewell and new begining
May 26, 2009 @ 10:25 am in Neudesic
Today 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!
