 8The data below details the base salary information for each job I've held. This
 9information is posted publicly to ensure others in my position have a solid
10reference point when determining if their current or proposed salary is
11appropriate.

13While sites like Glassdoor are locking salary data behind a paywall, LinkedIn is
14discontinuing LinkedIn Salary, and helpful websites like [[https://www.big4transparency.com/][Big 4 Transparency]] are
15extremely rare, I wanted to provide my personal data publicly and freely to
16those who need it.
17
18I have seen what can happen when great employees don't know the market values
19for their skills and I happily help those in my teams, so I'm happy to extend
20this information to the online community.

22As a final note, there are numerous reasons that people in the same role are
23paid differently (expertise, years of experience, certifications, education,
24etc.) and that the data in this table should only be used as a single point of
25reference, not the whole story.

31Note: When in a role that gives periodic raises, I will create a new record with
32the new base salary in the table below. See the KPMG records for an example of a
33raise while in the same role.

66I want to reiterate this piece:

69Please consider publishing your salary data like this as well. By open,
70voluntary transparency we can help to end stigmas around discussing pay and help
71ensure that the next generations of people in tech are treated fairly. Stigmas
72thrive in darkness but die in the light of day. You can help end the stigma by
73playing your cards out in the open like this.
