A fun fact about me is…

I started a business when I was a teenager.

Functional executor: I love driving projects from the ground up. Doing the task gets me fired up.

What's in my dock

A screenshot of David Paige's dock

4 browsers since I'm doing full stack coding. GIMP is the oddball, but you never know when you need an image editor.

My workplace setup

David Paige's workplace setup

I just grab a convenient corner and hope for the best. Sometimes I need to battle with a little beast for space, like Ivy here. I prefer a mouse to the trackpad, but the cat scares it away.
