Welcome

Hello and welcome! This is my personal blog where I'll be sharing thoughts on software engineering, system design, technology, and life in general.

What You'll Find Here

I plan to write about:

  • Software & Systems: Patterns and practices for building scalable systems and architectures
  • Technology Trends: Thoughts on emerging technologies, tools, companies, etc
  • Career Insights: Lessons learned from working and growing a successful career in big tech
  • My life: Above all, I am still a human with thoughts/feelings outside of software engineering. I have an amazing family, and enjoy football, reading, cooking, and fitness

Why I Write

My mother has always been an avid journaler, and this was something engrained in me from an early age. While I still analog journal, there are benefits to capturing thoughts online as well.

Writing online helps me:

  1. Organize my thoughts
  2. Share knowledge/document lessons
  3. Connect with other people
  4. Provide a central location where I can look back on my previous thoughts

Get In Touch

Life is about community, and one of the things I appreciate about sharing your thoughts is the ability to connect with others. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions, thoughts, or want to discuss any of the topics I write about. My email is "conner" at this apex domain.

Thanks for reading!
