What I think about

Follow my thoughts
Engineering leadership

Good leadership makes it easier for teams to make decisions, take ownership, and do their best work together.

Quality vs speed

Ship thoughtfully, verify assumptions, and improve what works.

Observability & platforms

Useful platforms give teams visibility and remove friction, so they can focus on the product they are building.

Curiosity & experimentation

Small experiments are how new ideas become real products, and how a curious mind keeps growing.

Beyond work

Travel, cycling, smart home projects and building things that probably didn't need to exist.
