Tech talk, personal updates, and possibly TV takes
Philly born. NYC made. Now just a guy in NC with a lot of thoughts.
Mental Pings
Quick thoughts, unfiltered.
Being a night/late night Chronotype is so exhausting! I get all my best work done late night then wake up early for actual work.
Another week at the new gig! Honestly can’t stop wanting to work and learn 🤩
Beginning a deeper dive into Powershell! Been using it for scripts and such and piecemealing it together but I figured “let’s formalize this!”

Avascular Necrosis: My Journey

On Starting Over
The idea of starting over — professionally, romantically, even on a large project — is a truly daunting one. No matter who you are, I can’t imagine that you aren’t full of nerves. Even if you’re excited about starting over, there are still the big questions of “am I doing the right thing?” and “what am I ACTUALLY doing with my life?”
