In the last 8 years, I ...

I am passionate about ...

... software as a craft.
I am studying the best parts of multiple design approaches (from machine-focused to human-focused to business-focused) to create robust, understandable, and timely software.
... learning and the mind.
Cognitive augmentation tech is still in its infancy, but its necessity will only increase. The untapped psychological potential in the world is a tragedy. To learn is to live.
