Now

I live in Silicon Valley, California and work as a software engineer on an operating system kernel’s performance analysis subsystems. Before the pandemic, I biked to work every day, rain or shine, and I sold my car. During the pandemic, I’m fortunate enough to work from home.

I wrote a few Rust programs in the last year to generate this website and create topographic maps that I can plot on my pen plotter. When I have a compelling need for a functional widget, I can print it out with a 3D printer. And I’m building garden beds to start a vegetable and herb garden.

Over the next year, I’d like to:

• Read more books
• Build systems that use e-ink displays
• Come up with designs to keep my pen plotters in use
• Design a new kind of bicycle counter
• Push for safer transportation infrastructure where I live
• Grow my own produce
• Keep this site updated with progress on all of the above
