About Me
The Host
Hello! I’m Joel McCune, the voice behind these eclectic podcasts and the face of this platform. With an academic foundation of an MBA and a BS in Computer Science, fortified by SAFE SPC and PMP certifications, my professional path as a consultant keeps me engaged. Once the corporate day winds down, my entrepreneurial spirit leads the way, guiding my own business endeavors.
Travel has been an inseparable part of my life narrative, with childhood memories sprinkled across the globe, and recent adventures including a cross-country jaunt with my loyal canine and an enthralling trip to the tranquil vistas of Banff and Jasper in Canada with my girlfriend. My international odyssey extended to spending five transformative summers in Uganda and Guyana, where I collaborated with a medical team in managing clinics and developing orphanages among other impactful endeavors. The authorial journey of "Agile Unscrum-bled: Decoding Agile Jargon in 2023" reflects my zeal for demystifying complex notions, a passion that resonates through my podcasts.
Each episode, be it a dive into the DMV’s hidden corners, a foray into the Googleverse, or a discourse on Agile semantics, is a testament to my diverse interests. When not behind the mic, you'll find me carving snow-laden slopes or hiking amidst nature's grandeur. I see life as a grand narrative, enriched with every interaction and experience.
Through this podcast platform, I extend an invitation for you to explore, engage, and exchange ideas, embodying the spirit of openness to new experiences and the resilience to view failure as a mere stepping stone to success.
