Joining the Flash Player Team

As of last week I changed roles at Adobe. Since August I have been working as part of the Flash authoring team as designer/developer relations manager. I am in the process of transitioning over to the Flash Player team as a product manager. While I loved working with the Flash authoring team, the opportunity to work as product manager was very tempting, and the fact that it was on Flash Player, the technology that makes the Flash ecosystem possible, was too amazing to resist.

For those of you that know Emmy, don’t worry, she is still there. In fact I report to Emmy now and player has two product managers. There is a lot going on in Player these days, and Emmy has been doing the job of two (or more) for a long time. I’m still getting up to speed on everything the Flash player does, and it is a lot more than I really had originally thought, between the dot releases of Flash, Tamarin, and Linux player, it is a busy, very efficient team.

My blog has been sparse the last few months, but I hope to get back to blogging regularly again. :)

Also, I will be at Flash In the Can – Toronto, DX3, WebDU and a couple of other conferences along the way. If you will be at one, I hope to see you there.
