What I’m doing right now

(based on Derek Siver’s /now pages)

Work

I’m currently building CodeCrafters, a site for advanced programming challenges. As a self-taught programmer, I’ve found “Build Your Own X” tutorials to be a very effective method of learning. When working as an Engineering Manager at Shuttl, I ran a series of trainings/workshops based on that format which people seemed to have found interesting. CodeCrafters is an attempt to bring that experience to a wider audience.

Hobbies & Fitness

Recently, I’ve picked up an interest in interior design. I started out by reading A Pattern Language, and am now working my way through The Architecture of Happiness. Itching to put my theoretical knowledge to use, I’m now trying to apply these principles in my apartment.

Fitness is something I’ve been lagging behind on in the past year. I’m trying to get back into a routine by walking 10k steps everyday, and running at least twice a week.
