About

I care about the basic aspects of engineering — clear interfaces, good naming, and self documenting code that is eligible. Most of my work lives behind the scenes: APIs and services that are boring in the best possible way.

Away from learning I run, play golf, and follow F1 closely. Im usually halfway through a book or halfway through building something. I love a challenge.

Node.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, MySQL, GCP, Grafana
