perhaps unfair but the truth is being an extremely annoying vibe-ruiner compromises your message. if you find yourself embroiled in never ending arguments in every room you enter it’s probably worth asking if you are the most effective messenger for whichever ideas you’re attempting to communicate

I spent the last couple of weeks in Copenhagen riding bikes and eating everything I could get my hands on.

The Danish way of life is wonderful and has really made me double down on how I want my life to look. Can't wait to get back.

I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the problems with modern computers lately. The hardware is better than ever but the problem is the software.

Our devices have become time vampires, designed to capture our attention, often at the expense of our mental health.

I've been spending a lot of my time working with react native + expo, and just found out my favorite component library (nativebase) is no longer going to be maintained.

About to kick off a new build, any suggestions on options you've liked that are both properly accessible & fairly customizable?

👋 Hi! I'm new here and introducing myself with a little shameless self promotion.
I was recently on a podcast that my company creates and it sums up a lot of what I do. You can listen to it here if that's your thing.
