Writing
Sometimes I put my fingers on the keyboard to try to make sense of things, maybe for you, but mostly for me. Someone once told me that no matter how simple you think an idea is, there is always value in writing it down, even if it feels obvious at the time. That said, the internet does not need more opinions added to the pile, so this space is primarily a place for me to think in public and leave a trail I can come back to later.
If you find something here that resonates, or something you strongly disagree with, I would genuinely enjoy talking about it. Comments are not enabled for $REASONS so feel free to reach out.
