I love learning new technology and expanding my knowledge and skillset. I blog here about technology, programming, gaming, and more.


Hi, I'm Robert Baker.

I am a leader, technologist, an architect, a problem solver, and a hands-on developer passionate with staying on the bleeding edge. I love learning new technology while delivering maintainable, performant code. I have more than 15 years' experience spanning across product development, consulting, architecture, building on-premises/cloud/hybrid and enterprise solutions.


About

Home

**Robert Baker** is a Chief Technical Officer from [Phoenix, Arizona](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix,\_Arizona). Since first using a computer at 5 years old, he always knew what he wanted to do. He learned his first language, QuickBasic, at the age of 16 while being a member of the Computer Club. In a few short years, Robert soon discovered C# and has been in love with it ever since. He has contributed to many different open-source projects throughout the years, while helping companies achieve their vision.

In the past, Robert has worked on WinForms and WPF based desktop apps, ASP.NET MVC webapps, AngularJS web apps, and Xamarin mobile apps.

Today, Robert still enjoys writing C#. He is currently focused on architecting cloud-based systems, .net based micro-services, modern web apps, containerizing things in Docker, CI/CD automation, and learning new things. He's currently playing with NextJS and Vue.

As a hobby, Robert likes to play video games and write this blog. He lives in Phoenix with his beautiful wife and three pets.

**Working from home** is a blessing some of us are able to enjoy. Like most people, I don't like commuting for work. It takes up my time and risks my health, all to keep a seat warm. I am fortunate to be able to have a career that enables this flexibility and freedom. So why are some digital workers against remote work and why do they prefer sitting in an office?

## Advantages

The biggest advantage is getting more time to spend with your family. Gone are the days of having to leave an hour early to beat traffic.
