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.

I try hard to seem even-keeled during a crisis outwardly. Inside, I panic and try to focus only on getting the next step accomplished.

I'm a night owl

WASMs, Cypress, WebGL, and DevOps

DevOps in particular always seems like black magic to me, so I'm always in awe of the tools and strategies used.

this is not financial advice

I'm a bit of an autodidact, so I learn best outside of group settings.

Any time I need to speak in front of a large group. I'm a total introvert!

I like doing the grunt work. The beauty is that I actually grunt while I do it.

I started a business when I was a teenager.

It was actually a web comic that ultimately proved to be unsuccessful but I did go through all the motions of getting a DBA and tax id. I have a fairly developed, if under-used, skillset in illustration.

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

Reading, gaming, and wrangling cats (if you can call that relaxing).

I really like the idea of doing something that's both awesome and makes a difference in the world.
