A bit of personal news for y’all.

Today is my last day as a member of the Bluesky team!

The past 2+ years building out Bluesky’s Infrastructure and Platform team and scaling the network from 100,000 -> 40,000,000 users have been the most intense and rewarding years of my life.

Who knew squiggles
could cause such joy?

But here I am
a very happy boy

I’m glad I came
to the beach first thing

I love it when a fossil
makes my heart sing.
