Software architect in the .NET space since the framework's inception — two-time startup employee #3. I design spec-first, plan-second, code-last: specs are cheap to rewrite, code isn't, so every incongruence gets sorted before a single line is committed to. Once code ships, the philosophy doesn't change — compile-time enforcement over runtime guessing, no silent fallbacks, fail loudly and immediately, and naming as a deliberate act, never an afterthought. The pit of success: the easy path and the correct path should be the same path.
The repos below are where that ethos ships in the open.
A zero-dependency .NET library for generating RFC 9562 compliant, time-ordered UUIDs. Produces UUIDv7 (millisecond precision), UUIDv8 (tick precision), deterministic UUIDv5/v8 name-based, and random UUIDv4 identifiers — all with SQL Server sort-order support and built-in timestamp extraction. Ideal for reducing clustered index fragmentation while retaining the global uniqueness and merge-safety of standard UUIDs.
A lightweight .NET library that lets you await a tuple of tasks and destructure the results in a single line. Supports up to 16 tasks with mixed return types, ConfigureAwait, and .NET 8+ ConfigureAwaitOptions — no Task.WhenAll boilerplate required.
A reference .NET platform — Norse.* — built as composable realms. Repositories carry the lore; namespaces carry the function: open the org and tour the cosmos, open the .slnx and every project says what it does. Each realm ships independently; mix in the realms you need, write your own .NET Aspire AppHost, and compose your own platform on the same substrate.
The rainbow bridge between the realms, watched over by Heimdall. Clone with submodules and the whole platform comes up running:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/NorseArchitecture/Bifrost.git| Realm | The lore | Provides |
|---|---|---|
| Svartalfheim | The dwarven forge where Mjölnir and Gleipnir were made | Norse.Primitives — the forge: Result<T>, the parsing stack, and the analyzers and BuildCheck rules that strike when law is broken |
| Asgard | Realm of the Æsir, whose laws bind gods and mortals alike | Norse.Abstractions — declared law: contracts, attribute model, plugin interfaces, mediator law |
| Midgard | Realm of mortals, where the law is lived | Norse.Infrastructure — embodied law: concrete persistence, mediator runtime, API, UI Composition framework |
| Urdarbrunnr | The Well of Urd at Yggdrasil's roots, where the Norns carve fate into its trunk as runes | Norse.EntityFramework — entity base types, DbContext foundations, conventions, value converters, and the migrations chassis |
| Ratatoskr | The squirrel racing up and down Yggdrasil's trunk, carrying messages between the eagle at the crown and Níðhöggr at the roots | Norse.NServiceBus — NServiceBus endpoint configuration, saga infrastructure, message conventions, and transport wiring |
| Yggdrasil | The World Tree that binds the nine realms | Norse.Hosting — hosting runtimes and deployables: web server, worker, migration service, WASM client, and MAUI app |
| Himinbjorg | Heimdall's hall at the head of Bifrost | Norse.Identity — EF persistence for ASP.NET Identity and OpenIddict: entities, conventions, and migrations; sealed server-side, never referenced from WASM or MAUI |
| Heimdall | The ever-watchful guardian of Bifrost, who alone decides who may cross | Norse.Access — one auth ruleset across Blazor Server, WASM, and MAUI, with admin components and the backing gRPC service |
| Nagalfar | The ship built from dead men's nails, captained by giants, to ferry the end of the world | Norse.DesignSystem — design tokens, radii, and component primitives assembled into something seaworthy enough to carry every product UI |
| Glitnir | The shining hall of judgment where every suit is settled | The design court — specs, plans, and proof-of-concept verdicts |
