Who am I?

I am an Senior UX Engineer at Nest/Google. Since 2013, I have been on the nest.com team; building and improving the web experience for Nest customers.

Outside of work, I listen to music, play some instruments, do some camping, and more or less try to enjoy the life I lead.

I have thoughts. Here are some recent ones.
