Rob Boucher

Rob has been in the software space for 22 years. He learned customer empathy starting at Microsoft in 1993 supporting the Visual C++ 1.0 compiler. After welcoming the demise of the evil that was 16-bit memory models, he drifted to various roles looking for the unfilled cracks between disciplines. He's had jobs doing dev, test, content architecture, taxonomy, SEO, teaching and instruction, video and audio encoding and engineering, music composition and performance, and lately visual design. At Microsoft, he's worked on Visual Studio, Windows NT, Windows Media Player, Windows Phone, Windows Live and now Microsoft Azure. Lately, his passion for instruction and guidance led him to write Cloud and Enterprise docs where he specializes in creating visuals both large and small to speed people’s understanding of Microsoft Azure.
