Photography

I picked up a Nikon D70 in 2004 when I moved to Seattle, then challenged myself to learn it inside and out. The result has been thousands of photos, a small bag of lenses, and a new way of looking at the world around me.

Electronics

After wrapping my head around exposure and learning to compose using prime lenses, I again yearned to learn something new. Indulging in my life-long fascination with electronics, I ordered Horowitz and Hill’s The Art of Electronics and forced myself not to turn to the next page until I understood the one I was on. I first put this knowledge to use creating a small flash trigger for capturing water droplet splashes, and am now working on a persistence-of-vision clock built with discrete logic.

Software

Under the tutelage of my grandfather, I learned to program on a Commodore 64 at the age of six. Learning to think in algorithms and objects has allowed me to solve problems using code, whether that be automation and tools at Microsoft, widgets and utility applications at home, or shell scripts to mangle data into whatever new form I see fit.

SharePoint

I’ve had the pleasure of working on Windows SharePoint Services at Microsoft. Here are a few projects I’ve contributed to.
