About Me

I'm a self- / bootcamp-taught developer with a deep respect for and fascination with technology.

I grew up in Hawaii and Maine (nine years each). After studying moral philosophy and political science at the University of King's College in Halifax, I moved to Washington, DC to work in the U.S. Senate. I quickly found entrepreneurship a more compelling focus, and through it came to a deeper understanding and appreciation of technology.

Now I just want to find a project on which to go turbo.

What Would Be Nice

I want to be around people who set high standards for themselves and are energized by daunting challenges. I want 'difficult' to go hand-in-hand with 'daring'. I want to shun the question 'How can we make it harder to quit' and instead ask 'How can we make it irresistible to live without?'
