What to Build?
While most people around the world are getting into the World Cup spirit, Rocket Software employees are gearing up for another global event: Rocket.Build 2018. This is my first Build, and I have to admit that I’m pretty excited about it. Six months into my tenure as Chief Product Officer (CPO) here at Rocket I […]
“Best of Luck to Rocket.Builders” from a 2017 Rocket.Build Champion
It’s that most wonderful time of year; ‘tis the season… of Rocket.Build. Rocket.Build is an annual competition between teams of Rocketeers from all over the world hosted in Boston, MA. It’s 5 days of intense collaboration that ends with dozens of QA-ready projects, and proud (if not exhausted) developers. For many Rocketeers, this will […]
Healthy data governance makes for healthy patients
This week, I am in India to attend the 2018 Great Indian Developer Summit. So far, I am so impressed with the quality of all the presentations and workshops I’ve attended, particularly those from my fellow Rocketeers. India is one of the world’s great centers for IT talent, and this event really reflected that. I […]

Doing Good in Ones and Zeroes
For college students, Saturday mornings are typically a time to catch up on sleep or homework. However, this past weekend approximately 40 Catholic University of America (CUA) students from a variety of disciplines spent the day trying to solve the homelessness problem. The students were eager participants in the university’s first Homeless Hackathon, which was […]
Rocket Gives Back to the Community – Community Day 2017
I have been looking forward to Rocket Community Day all year long. Since joining Rocket 11 months ago, I’ve heard many things about this favorite annual volunteer event; stories of coworkers crawling into soup kitchen ovens, others who worked out retired greyhounds, or decorated children’s hospital floors, and some who cried through 5 hours of […]
Building companies that last
I spend quite a bit of time working with college students, from our summer interns to participants in IBM’s Master the Mainframe contest. It’s a good feeling because I remember all of the experienced programmers and engineers that shared their expertise with me when I was just starting out. Now it’s my time to help […]
