September 2023

I live in a suburb of Chicago with my wife, Samantha, and daughter, Violet. Violet is now 16 months old, and she enchants me to the point that after she goes to sleep at night, I look at photos of her. In my work-life am CTO at Packback. I have been working on cool applications of generative AI, and am looking forward to releasing them to the world.

In my spare time, I cook (smoking is something I am currently experimenting with), I still solve logic puzzles daily, and I have started down a path towards killing my lawn and replacing it with native prairie plants. Over summer, I completed Illinois Master Naturalist training, and it ignited a love of nature inside of me.
