About me

I've loved all things technology for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I was constantly fiddling with any piece of tech I could get my hands on: telephones, TV remotes, and, most consequentially for me, the Bondi Blue iMac G3 at my grandparents' house.

My first foray into programming was with AppleScript, hobbling together a cash register app (back when you could build Cocoa apps with AppleScript Studio). I have a long list of technical fascinations (many of which will surely be featured in blog posts on this site) but more recently have been focusing on iOS & macOS development.

I'm also an organist and pianist – music has been a constant thread in my life, from practicing and performing to the fascination with sound and its ability to convey emotion to the listener.

Most recently, I completed a Masters in Computer Science at the University of London, though much of what drives me comes from curiosity and the joy of making things.

Thanks for being here. I plan to share more about current projects, both technical and musical, as the site grows.

About this site

This site is built with Eleventy and hosted by Cloudflare.

It is set in the beautiful Inter font which is designed by Rasmus Andersson, along with JetBrains Mono, designed by Philipp Nurullin.

The visualization on the homepage weaves together a number of things that are influential and important to me: California's mountain landscapes, the sinusoidal pattern of sound/radio waves (a nod to music and electronics), and the satisfying technical challenge of bringing something visually interesting to life.
