I've been in the same industry (focused on a particular product line) for nearly two decades on my own, but the work is drying up. I want to move on, ideally doing remote contracting for a company that appreciates both the wisdom and circumspection that comes with age, and the always-hungry/always-learning attitude that comes with being a SMB owner for nearly 20 years. I consider myself a hacker in the truest sense: I like to get my hands dirty, and find the solutions that everyday consultants would miss, because I get my hands dirty with everything, every day.

My resume looks like this post: all over the place. It almost seems like it's all amateur work, because so much of the "cool stuff" was done for internal consumption in my own business or for clients, and I've (effectively) had one employer for 18+ years. The stuff that is publicly available is quite political in nature. But none of it is amateur work; I'm a damn professional, and I know what I'm doing…but I'm not so stuck in my ways that I'm afraid to ask for help when I need it.
