About
I’ve always been captivated by computers, and that has grown into a fulfilling career. Outside of work I often spend my time:
- Tinkering w/ Tech: I spend a bunch of time tinkering with technology, often guided by what will help me at work. This website is running on a 9-node Kubernetes cluster under my TV, deployed by Jenkins.
- Reading: I read a bunch of non-fiction books, maybe 70% in tech, 20% in science, and 10% misc.
- Cycling: I ride around 5,000 km a year and have a done a bunch of Bike Tours.
This site exists to share information about hobbies, projects and thoughts on various technical topics.
