Motivation

The golden rule is great, but it needs iteration. How we connect has been disrupted to the point that our connection to eachother is being redefined. I design, engineer, and expand on products and services that help people understand other people, places, and ideas the way they want to be understood themselves.

What a wonderful, liberating thing it would be if more of us, more of the time, saw diversity not as a burden but as a blessing. Not as a threat, but as an opportunity.
— H.H. Aga Khan IV

Good sense is the best distributed thing in the world - for everyone thinks themself so well-endowed with it that even those who are hardest to please in everything else, do not usually desire more of it than they already possess.

About Me

Coffee / Comedy / Curiosity / Alliteration

I try to avoid being reductive, but I can easily be summarized by these 3 things:

/ At least average at brewing pour-over on my V60 and espresso with my Aram/ROK

/ There are too many to make even a top-10 list of my favourite comedians

/ Ask me about my questions; I’d love to get to know you!
