I make computers do things & also jokes & pictures

Professionally, I'm a sort of wandering TDD-and-good-infrastructure ronin. I show up, fight the bandits in your CI, and leave town before anyone can force duty & honor into a conflict that will inevitably destroy me.

Personally, I'm a katamari damacy ball of hobbies but current interests include #StarTrek #Torchbearer #Photography #Knitting #Cooking #Baking #Lifting #Walking #MarvelSnap #Plants #Geology #California #Tea

Disability support worker with Auslan skills. Interested in accessibility and ongoing professional development. Member of Toastmasters International.

And now the fun stuff - I make things, read a lot, and am a gamer (currently getting into the Kids on Bikes TTRPG thanks to my spouse signing us up for an Auslan gaming group)

I am an engineer and technologist, but I mostly like words. In a previous life I traveled the world with the U.S. Navy. Unfortunately, from my vantage point it all looked like the inside of a submarine. I spend my free time hacking silver halides with decidedly low-tech gear and riding motorcycles around and around in circles.
