Outdoor Enthusiast
I’ve been actively hiking for a few years now. I recently started doing overnighters and love the steep climbs. I also mountain bike and skateboard. I have a partially built-out van and pose as a vanlifer on the weekends from time to time.
My dog, Ollie, is usually along for the ride. He’s my trail buddy and road trip companion.
Curious Mind
I have interests in technology, policy, governance, and efficiency. I enjoy learning about Lean, Six Sigma, and anything related to improving efficiency and eliminating wasteful processes.
At the end of the day, I’m always seeking ways to combine what I know with what I love.

- Swift & SwiftUI: Building native iOS experiences
- AI-Assisted Development: Leveraging tools like Cursor and ChatGPT
