Interests

Aside from programming, I satiate my tech fixation by circuit-bending toys or working with aftermarket car audio.

I do my best to make it to the gym but when I stay indoors I'm either prowling for unseen standup comedy or playing videogames. I'm hoping to advance my gym climbing to outdoor rock climbing soon.
