Is that an existential question or what?

Ok, so what am I? I guess I’m…

• The manager of a small development team for a multinational messaging company.
• A C# & VB.NET developer of about 5 years working on a high volume transactional messaging solution at the moment.
• Providing consultancy services in Australia an Europe.
• The husband of a talented web developer.
• Based in Paris (yes, the one in France) .
• A proponent of Agile practices.
• Working on my skills in the field of a number of acronyms (eg. TDD, DDD, ORM, SQL, IoC, SoC, SOA and ESBs, to name but a few).
• An Aus-pom-erican (born in New York, have British citizenship through my mother and grew up in Australia).
• An avid blog reader – some of my favorites are in the sidebar.
• Running out of things to add to this list.

 
So, as for who I am – is it really that important? If you really must know you can find me on the NHibernate forums on a regular basis as merge_s.rottem as the result of some issues that occurred during the merging of the old NHibernate forums with the Hibernate forums as I had an account on each with the same name. I try to lead a moderately private life, so I’ll leave it to you to pry if you feel you need to know more. At least for now…
