๐Ÿ  welcome to my internet home!

glad youโ€™re here :) hope youโ€™ll stick around for a bit (or check out my digital garden โ†—!)

a little about me:

Iโ€™m currently a systems engineer building production- and research-ready infra at ๐ŸŒ— Reve โ†— (สษ›v ) . Weโ€™re dreaming up the future of creative toolingโ€” excited to say more about it soon!

Previously, I was a codepoint fellow at โ„๏ธ Sutter Hill Ventures โ†—, made a few games (and composed their soundtracks!) with my friends at ๐Ÿ•น Hexcaliber Games โ†—, general-managered at the ๐Ÿง Open Computing Facility โ†—, and ๐Ÿป taught โ†— a โ†— few โ†— classes โ†— at UC Berkeley.

I write long-form musings about history, technology, and community on my blog. My latest post is about the history (and future) of Bay Area transit. You can also find life updates / rough drafts on substack โ†—.
