Why this site lists industries and not employers

Most portfolios read like a list of logos. I left the logos out.

A company name tells you where I sat. The industry tells you what I had to learn to be useful there: how an insurer prices risk, what a regulator expects from an exchange, why a plantation cares about the ripeness of a single bunch of fruit.

That learning is the part of the job that carries over. The code I wrote for an event platform is long gone from my head. The habit of asking how the business makes money before opening an editor is not.

So the path on this site is a list of industries, newest first, with no years attached. If you want the names and the dates, ask me. I’m happy to tell you.
