Interests

I've done webdev as a hobby on-off since 2000s — HTML Goodies, PHP4 days, Wordpress, Javascript, Python frameworks.

I like building PCs - love being cheap, hate cable management.

I enjoy learning about businesses, product ideas, entrepreneurship.

I dabble with Photoshop, Davinci Resolve, SDXL LORAs.

Education

I did Political Science. Enjoyed researching incentives, money, civil wars.

I'm not a math or science person.
