-          You need to know that I am a generalist and I like to solve problems.  I have had so many different titles and responsibilities through my career because given a situation I see what needs to be done and do it.
-          I've worked and started so many open source projects because some problems are small have have technical solutions.
-          And my focus is turning more and more toward building teams, because that's how you solve the more important problems.

-          You need to know that not only am I a doer, I am a dreamer.  I chase the ideal, I believe in win-win, and I am a peacemaker.  I get away with this because integrity &amp;amp; passion are contagious.  Tempered with respect, they will earn you trust.
+          My 10 years as a software developer, team lead, coach, and facilitator, have been about aligning people, building teams, and creating value.
         &lt;/p&gt;

-          You need to know that in a team, I am a leader and a peacemaker.  I lead by enabling, empowering, and serving.  I believe that integrity and passion are contagious.  And I believe that it's all about trust, and that to get trust, you have to give it.
+          I have extensive experience coaching software development teams across many industries, introducing agile best practices and values, and leading my teams to deliver working software.
         &lt;/p&gt;

-          This is who I want to be, this is who I am.
+          I believe that leadership is about service and two-way trust.  I believe that integrity and passion are contagious, and I try to model my beliefs.
