I write computer code that does useful things. I have worked as a software
developer with large companies like Nasdaq and NVIDIA and also with with
smaller, leaner startups in the cryptocurrency space. I hope you will see
through this site that I am a generalist too and cultivate knowledge across many
seemingly disjoint domains. This site is a record of that interest.
My professional expertise is within the broad scope of “distributed systems”;
this includes blockchains, P2P networking, high-availibility systems, and
technology built on these primitives. High-level concepts I have relevant
professional experience with are Digital Money, Decentralized Finance,
perpetual futures, options, and many different flavors of stablecoins.
Before I began working full-time I graduated from
North Carolina State University with a B.S. in Computer Engineering and
another B.S. in Electrical Engineering. During that time I also accidentally
took enough courses to collect my minor in mathematics on the way out the door.
Tech
I am a digital native; I believe Digital Money is the future. I run an
On-Prem Home Lab Kubernetes cluster which hosts this website and many other
services. I am building a generally available P2P network called
HooYa! which already hosts all of the images on this website.
New software I write these days is typically in Rust but I have a strong
background in Go and C++. The technologies I use beyond these languages are too
many to mention. My personal code is available from my
Github.
Personal
Within and without the above tech I maintain my hobbies.
My daily-driver is a '97 BMW 318ti which I maintain to its factory
specification. This car is older than me yet somehow still runs; I am its only
mechanic.
I am fluent in Japanese; I studied at Sophia University in Tōkyō, Japan;
continuing my Japanese study is one of several outlets for me to express my
passion for learning.
My aesthetics are important to me; I am in the gym and
lifting more days than I am not.
Other things I love:
Most of the day I exist in my Workspace.
There are many ways to Contact me on the Internet. Some preferred more than
others.
