Constant learner, enthusiastic teacher...skier, cyclist, chef, fly caster, volunteer, Orangeman, investor, media junkie and beer drinking party guy. Drop me a line at: aaron.c.tersteeg at the domain intel.com. I launched the mobile software development community in the summer of 2006 and am now the community manager for Threading for Multi-Core. In my current role my focus is software development evangelist and geek blogger. Started as a mechanical engineer (oil pump design didn't do it for me), moved on to Information Resource Management, worked as a Business Process Consultant, Fortune 500 Webmaster, Web Application Development VP of Sales and Marketing, Data Center Product Management and now Software Development. My wife likes to tell people at parties that I blog for a living. It is much more than that but it lets me share my ideas and hear what developers have to say. |
