✦ Personal · Outside of work
The other 16 hours.
The stuff that makes me a person, not just a LinkedIn profile.
Surfing
Addicted to being the world's slightly above-average surfer.
Moving
Biking, hiking, and the occasional obstacle course.
Long-form reading
30+ books a year, mostly nonfiction. I dog-ear shamelessly.
Slow travel
32 countries and counting. The longer the stay, the better the story.
Music
Send me a playlist. I'll return one twice as long.
Journaling
Pen on paper, every morning. It's cheaper than therapy.
✦ Personal · Places
Seven countries. One curiosity.
Every city taught me a different version of how to build.
1996 — 2018
Nice, France
Where the curiosity started. School, sea, and too many questions.
2018 — 2022
Tangier, Morocco
Founded Shine Space here. The dorm room company became Morocco's leading edtech initiative.
2019
Bozeman, Montana
American Student Leader fellowship — US State Department. Big skies, bigger ideas.
2022 — 2024
Iowa City, Iowa
Grad school. Learned to write, to research, to slow down.
2024
New York City
UN Youth Delegate work. Public policy in fast forward.
2024 — Now
Syracuse, NY
Currently building embedded products at Novanta. Snow is a personality test.
