I strive to create and maintain relationships with technology professionals in the Greater Boston area. My daily conversations range from better understand the technologies, to connecting and networking, to finding jobs for people who are looking. While not a programmer myself, I've always enjoyed technology and am always open to conversations about the different aspects of software development. I'm all ears if you ever want to talk about what you're working on.
