About me

I grew up in Fairfield, California, among a scenery of golden, rolling hills and mall parking lots. I wouldn't be where I am today without a healthy balance of life outside of work.

I like to challenge how much camping gear I can strap to a bike, this time along the Northern California coast

Given the abstract nature of my job (you can't touch an accretion disk! bummer!), I'm drawn to tactile hobbies. Lately I'm enjoying playing with fibers and being mediocre with spray paint and screenprinting.
