Summary


I am a software engineer that isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty, as dirty as software can get anyways. The lower you go in the software stack, the better.

Do it right, do it light; do it wrong, do it long

I apply this quote to both my life and my work, focusing on quality and always getting things done the right way.

Weightlifting, gaming, and personal projects occupy most of my time outside of work.
