Hey! It’s me!

My name is Ryan – I’m a software engineer from Seattle. Currently I work for Google leading a team that builds the Cloud Console UIs for Dataflow and Pub/Sub. TypeScript, Angular, RxJS, and Java are the tools I use most frequently.

In my free time ~~I like to ski and hike in the Cascade Mountains~~ I am consumed by my obsession with the McNamara Fallacy.

If you’d like to chat, my email address is [email protected].
