now - march 2025
This is my now page - it's what I'd tell my friends if they asked me, "What are you up to right now?"
If you have your own site, you should have one too!
working a lot #
I’m plugging away at work, grinding out a few releases and onboarding some new teammates after our recent hiring cycle. I’m excited that our little soccer group has grown to six total engineers, and rather proud that I was promoted to Engineering Manager - although suddenly having five reports is definitely adding a load that I’ll need to keep an eye on to make sure I’m not burning out. The dream “50% IC 50% managing” balance is, thus far, still a dream…
staying active #
I’m nailing down swimming and volleyball routines, which I’m pretty proud of so far. I’ve taken up a weekly lesson in each of swimming and volleyball and manage two sessions each outside of that, which is going super well even in the face of major work deadlines.
want to travel soon #
I haven’t booked any travel but I’m starting to get the itch again. I don’t think there is an on-site coming soon (although I’m mixed on whether I want to be travelling to the US right now). Trying to get a break after pushing hard this last quarter, we’ll see how that goes.
