I am working as a consultant, supporting early stage startups building product and engineering teams, including shipping lots of code in many of these engagements, primarily in Ruby on Rails.
Lately, this work has included both building LLM-powered features for my clients and leaning heavily into LLM tools to help me work more efficiently as an engineer.
I am thinking a lot about loneliness and finding ways to help people build healthier versions of themselves, offline and in-person. I spend less than 30 minutes on my phone each day and I hope to find ways in the future to help other people build a more intentional relationship with their phone.
I run, lift weights, box, hike, and spend as much time as I can challenging myself physically. In March, I finished the Sierra Club's Wilderness Travel Course, culminating with three days and two nights snow camping in the Sierras. It was cold, challenging, and deeply satisfying. This summer, I'm working on pushing my mile time down under 6:30, which is both incredibly slow (based on my own PB from... many years ago) and impossibly fast (based on how a 7 minute mile feels for me today), and training for a trail and road races in the fall and on into 2026.
I am in the process of moving from Los Angeles, California to Seattle, Washington.
