I help teams build event-sourced, event-driven systems that are easy to change and hard to break.
I'm a Senior Consultant at Improving and a member of the JasperFx core team, which builds the Critter Stack for .NET: Marten, Polecat, Wolverine, and CritterWatch.
Software architecture and design for .NET teams: event sourcing, CQRS, and event-driven systems, as a Senior Consultant at Improving.
How I work →Conference talks, user groups, workshops, and writing on event sourcing, software architecture, and the Critter Stack.
Talks →Core team on JasperFx's open-source Critter Stack, plus reference apps you can clone and argue with.

Walking through the move from layered Clean Architecture to vertical slices in an open-source .NET system. Why layering accumulates accidental complexity, and how Vertical Slices, A-Frame Architecture, and Railway Oriented Programming simplify feature development. One bakery API, built twice, verified by one shared test suite.

Wolverine and Marten as the alternative to boilerplate-heavy .NET frameworks and the in-house mediator library that quietly grows into one. Plain C# methods, with durable messaging, persistence, retries, and observability handled by mature open-source tooling.
I recently launched a new YouTube channel focused on software development, design, and architecture!
Writing about EventStore and PostgreSQL was such an interesting experience. I thoroughly enjoy using both technologies, but it was also important to convey how when used together that they truly complement each other by providing flexibility and value to both developers and the business.
I have some awesome news to share! I'm now a Developer Advocate at Event Store! I'll be posting content more regularly and attending more conferences + user groups in the future.
I like hearing about systems that need to remember what happened. Tell me what you're working on.
