I build apps for fun/work. Some are awesome, some are silly, most are almost finished. Just gotta add one more thing.
I care about coders more than I do about code. Same with designers more than their designs, product teams more than the product, and my coworkers more than our shared work.

Former college rugby player and current competitive Super Smash Bros Melee player.
