About My Blog

Hi! My name is Allen Snook and you’ve stumbled across my blog where I write about engineering leadership, e-commerce and online privacy.

The opinions I present here are my own and not necessarily those of my employer, but frequently they agree with me too.

You may be interested in viewing my LinkedIn and GitHub profiles.

And if you have some time to kill, you might also be interested in my photo blog at allensnook.com.
