He educates teams on Microsoft technologies via writing and training—both in-person and on demand.

He's also a consultant for companies small and large, worldwide, including Fortune 100 companies like Microsoft. Brian is a passionate software craftsman who still enjoys coding as he helps teams to improve their processes from idea to shipping, and to production management and monitoring. As a long time virtualization junkie, Brian's an expert in Hyper-V and Lab Management. In addition, he's become obsessed over the last few years with natural user interfaces and how to create compelling user experiences regardless of platform. In early 2010, he toured the world hitting most of the continents (sadly no penguins were trained) prepping Microsoft employees and Microsoft partners for the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 launch. In 2012, he and his team built some of the first training content and demos for Microsoft using Visual Studio 2012, Team Foundation Server 2012, and Windows 8. For the 2013 release, he continued building new ALM content for use worldwide by Microsoft and its partners. He's been a Microsoft MVP in developer related technologies for more than 10 years and is currently a Visual Studio ALM MVP. When not working, Brian enjoys spending time with his wife and two children who enjoy making him look bad on the Xbox One (with and without Kinect).
