What’s going on

Athena and I got married on November 2, 2024! It was a wonderful day, and it was followed by more wonderful days in Rome for our honeymoon.

We’re still living in Downtown Portland, and I’ve been working as a Customer Success Engineer at Hydrolix since the start of the year.

Hobbies and interests below!

Making

I like working on my home server, which is an old NUC running Ubuntu Server. I use it to self-host services like Immich for photos, Jellyfin for streaming, and Miniflux for RSS. Tailscale makes it so I can access those services anywhere.

I also want to get a 3D printer because I love the idea of making my own replacement parts and original gadgets.

Outdoorsing

Athena and I are hoping to start volunteering with Trail Keepers of Oregon soon because they do great work, it sounds fun, and they encourage carpooling!

Playing

My favorite board games right now are Netrunner, Unmatched, and War Chest, all of which Athena and I play frequently.

For videogames I’ve mostly been playing Tears of the Kingdom again, and I’m really looking forward to both Slay the Spire 2 and Hades 2.

Reading

I used to read all the time, and I’m getting back into it! Sci-fi is what I’m most interested in right now, and my current book is Antimatter Blues by Edward Ashton. Before that I read Mickey7.

What is this?

It’s a Now page, based on this idea from Derek Sivers. A description he uses that I found helpful is, "what you’d tell a friend you hadn’t seen in a year."
