Now

Living

Still in San Francisco

Reading

I’m rereading Martin Kleppmann’s excellent Designing Data-Intensive Applications and associated whitepapers.

After sitting at the top of my to read list for a while, I’ve been really enjoying John Steinbeck’s East of Eden.

Watching

Warriors basketball, Go Dubs!

Listening

I’ve made a Spotify playlist of what I’m listening to each season for the past 8 years, here is Winter ‘21.

Some albums that I’ve had on repeat are Julia Jacklin Crushing, Sam Evian Time to Melt, and Roy Fuyuki Scenery.

Learning

How to raise a puppy! Rach and I recently added Bode, a Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier, to our family in January. We’ve found Zak George’s YouTube channel and books to be a boon, and this whole experience has really underscored the importance of trust building and positive reinforcement learning. We’re having a blast!
