I’m an engineer who helps messages get delivered reliably and securely. I spend a lot of time:


  • extolling the many virtues of DKIM, SPF, and DMARC
  • researching weird edge cases in DNS and mail headers
  • mitigating abuse without blocking legitimate messages
  • translating CTIA guidelines into human-friendly workflows
  • getting misconfigured domains to turn their lives around
  • informing product decisions that keep emails out of the spam folder
  • explaining why it wasn’t our fault but fixing it anyway

Have a complex issue, a meaningful project, or a new role to discuss? Want to talk books or gossip about my two favorite coworkers?
