About

Last updated: August 27, 2022

I live in Southern California and like to read, tinker, and garden. This is me:

One thing I miss from the earlier days of the Internet is how people used to have their own websites. And so here I am, doing my small part by stubbornly maintaining an independent but high-friction way to post content on the Internet.

Life keeps me pretty busy, so I don’t post much or often.

Professionally, my tools of choice are AWS, Docker, Linux, Ruby on Rails, and PostgreSQL. I work at TrueCar to continually improve the state of our operations.

Aesthetically, my tastes lean heavily toward the classic, the timeless, and the functional. For me, that means the ThinkPad, the traditional desktop metaphor, Swiss railway clocks, the W126, and Super Mario World.

I’m terrible at drawing things but would like to get better.
