Publications

Below is a list of things I’ve published, both fiction and non-fiction. In addition, I’ve written developer documentation for the Microsoft Windows SDK, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud Platform.

Comics

I’ve published comics in the collaborative anthology, Dune.

  • Dune #82 (Dec 2019)
  • Dune #83 (Jan 2020)
  • Dune #84 (Feb 2020)

At Google, I co-led an initiative to use explainer comics to describe emerging technologies. In this capacity I worked with established comic artists (Scott McCloud, Dylan Meconis, and Lucy Bellwood) to produce the following:
