What I’m doing now…

Derek Sivers started the now page movement; seemed like a good idea to me!

Family

I’m currently very happily married to my beautiful wife Kristine. We have 5 amazing children ages 3-13 and they definitely keep is busy! We live in Spanish Fork, UT and we like to spend time putting together jigsaw puzzles and are trying to get more into hiking outdoors. Last summer we hiked to the Y and then did a couple other little hikes with the kids. We really enjoyed it and now that our youngest is able to walk more we hope to keep doing it more.

To stay in shape, Kristine and I have recently started going on walks around the neighborhood and I’ve found that it gives us a chance to talk (although I do too much talking about work right now) and also get away from the kids for a few minutes.

Kids activities (soccer, basketball, volleyball, to name a few) keep us pretty busy, although the pandemic was a nice reset for us to decide how much running around we want to do.

Work – BambooHR

I currently work full time for BambooHR. I absolutely love the company, the culture, the people, and the projects I get to work on. Right now I’m managing the Customer Experience Operations team, helping the teams in our CX department to have the tools and data they need when they need it and the most efficient processes possible to make the employees and our customer’s lives as awesome as possible. It has been a bit crazy lately but I have an amazing team that I love to work with and it is awesome watching them grow through the craziness.

Side Projects

For years I have been doing side projects. I have found it is my creative outlet when work has become more too stressful. It is sometimes hard to make changes in a larger organization but in a small piece of code or an app you can be more agile. For a while I was doing consulting work but I found it was too easy to take on too many projects so I pulled back completely to just work on my own little projects. This seems to have worked well for now but I do have the itch to work on more things.

KidText.me

KidText is an android and iOS app that allows parents to enable texting to only approved phone numbers. This app allows the parents to add in approved phone numbers as well as approve other KidText users in other families so kids can talk together.
