I'm currently a Program Manager for the patterns & practices:http://msdn.com/practices group at Microsoft which produces patterns & practices, where he focuses on software engineering and quality attributes. I've performed more than 750 architecture and design reviews for customers and use that experience to create customer-facing guidance. In addition to several knowledge base articles, MSDN Magazine articles, and online MSDN articles, I've authored the following books:

• Improving .NET Application Performance and Scalability (ISBN: 0-7356-1851-8)
• Improving Web Application Security: Threats and Countermeasures (ISBN: 0-7356-1842-9)
• Building Secure ASP.NET Applications (ISBN: 0-7356-1890-9)

My more recent work includes:

• [Guidance Explorer] - a tool to organize, create and share prescriptive guidance
• Creating an updated Threat Modeling approach specifically for Web applications
• Integrating security engineering activities into MSF Agile
• Creating application [security guidance for .NET Framework 2.0].
