About Me

When I'm not writing code, I'm probably elbow-deep in a home project, burning something on the stove, or convincing my dog that I'm the one in charge.

🔨

Home Improvement

I've ripped out more drywall than I'd like to admit. YouTube tutorials have saved me thousands in contractor fees.

🍺

Homebrewing

Making beer and wine at home. Some batches turn out great. Others... well, I've learned a lot from the bad ones.

👨‍🍳

Cooking

I cook most nights. Nothing fancy, but I've got a few dishes I'm proud of.

🍻

Brewery Hopping

Wherever I travel, I find the local breweries. It's like a scavenger hunt, but the prize is beer.

🐕

Dog Dad

My dog is smarter than me. Training him has been humbling. He's definitely winning.

🎹

Piano

Played clarinet and sax for years, but piano is kicking my ass. Turns out using both hands at once is hard.

// How I Think About Things

Most of what I do outside of work involves making stuff and then fixing it when it breaks. Brew a beer, tweak the recipe next time. Build a shelf, realize it's crooked, build a better one. Write some code, watch it fail in production, learn something new. It's all the same loop. I'm not chasing perfection—I just like getting a little better each time.

// Say Hi

Got a brewery recommendation? Want to argue about TypeScript? Just want to chat? I'm around.
