This is to serve as an overview of me, right now.

Life

  • Gaming a lot in my free time, as one does.

Work

  • Working at Signal making the android app awesome!
  • Super proud to have worked on and released the new usernames feature.
  • I've got a side thing I'm trying to get off the ground but we'll see what kind of time and mental capacity I have for it this year.

Gaming

  • I've been a gamer since I was a kid. It's a wonderful way for me to unwind at the end of a long day.
  • I'm a very competitive person, so I try to scratch that itch when I can via fighting games.

Music

  • If you'd like to check out things I've made in the past, you can see my soundcloud profile here
  • I'm currently listening to a lot of Periphery and Synthwave.
  • I implore everyone to go check out Sleep Token as well, they are incredible.

Writing

Dreaming

  • My hope for 2024 is one of growth.
    • Mental growth, and developing my growth mindset.
    • Family growth (not in number, but in that my children are happy and healthy)
    • Financial growth, as we try to brace against rising interest rates and the like
    • Physical growth, as I hope to start eating better, not eating at night, and generally taking better care of myself.
