About me

By day I am a Systems Reliability Engineer at Cloudflare, maintaining critical Internet infrastructure.

Outside of work, I bounce around between a large collection of interests, with the common focus of wanting to learn how things really work. On any given evening, you are likely to find me:

• Taking up bandwidth on the 20 and 40 meter bands or D-STAR as VA3ZZA
• Riding my motorcycle, or hanging around bike meets in the Toronto area
• Maintaining AS54041, a small computer network
• Writing and publishing electronic and experimental music
• Documenting my experiences through photography
• Falling off of walls Building up my skills in the bouldering gym
