Personal — April 2026
A little more about me.
The version of me that doesn't fit on a resume. Places I've lived, places I've wandered, people I've worked alongside across a lot of time zones, and what I get up to when I close the laptop.

Life beyond the laptop
When I close the laptop.
I live in Orange County. I cook almost every night, usually whatever I grabbed at Trader Joe's that week. There's usually a trip on the calendar. Next one is San Francisco. I'm also into landscape photography.
Saturdays usually involve the beach, brunch, a drive up PCH, or catching up with friends. Right now I'm reading The Thinking Machine, Stephen Witt's book on how Nvidia ended up running the AI boom. I also try to catch a movie in a theater whenever I can. I'd rather see something on a big screen than stream it.
