Hello, World!

I'm a software engineer, coder, and nerd, who likes exploring technology and science. This website is for me to put down cool things I want to share.

I am grateful that I live in a time where we have so much technology available to us. I'm even more grateful that I ended up on this career path where I'm able to develop software which creates a lot of value for people, and leads to above-average compensation.

I come from a family of extremely hard working people who encouraged me to go to college and get a good job. None of us expected I would be an engineer at Intel, and now NASA (though maybe not for much longer with the current administration...).

Next, what I would really like to do, is create a software company that develops competitive products that don't cannibalize their users through data collection, microtransaction, and other dark patterns, and promotes collectives that are doing similar work.
