Make the world before you a better one by going into it with all boldness. You are up to it and you are fit for it; you deserve it and if you make your own best contribution, the world before you will become a bit more deserving of you. —Seamus Heaney
Never leave for an adventure before planning the next one. Otherwise, life gets in the way. Travel and the people we meet along the way are the stuff life's best memories are made of. Don't miss out. —Me
And if you must know, I'm a software engineer at Uber (so awesome) in San Francisco. I read stacks of books, am supremely confident no TV show will ever eclipse LOST and go crazy when I can't work out.

Just capped off a 36 hour hackathon with my boy Amos. We seriously wrote code for 36 hours without stopping. Zero sleep. We didn't even leave the office for a meal. And it was fun. What?! That's the startup life.8 weeks ago

Good Halloween times last night!! Thank you to Lauren Titterud for making it happen. Joshua Rubin, Krys Giang and Natalia Farhadmotamed for helping to foot the bill and joining us on the Costco run in a farting car. DJ Coleman Rusnock for doing what he does best. Everybody who brought stuff. And of course the best roommate/uncle of all-time, Alan Burradell, for letting the party rage in his beautiful home/backyard. Last but not least, I woke up this morning in what I thought was a dream. The house was spotless. I suspect it didn't clean itself and wonder if Aram Dermenjian may have had something to do with that.2 months ago
