About Me

I'm a dad, granddad and transplanted American in London.
I've had two (main) careers so far: 20 years as a journalist and another 20 years or so (with some overlap) writing software, mostly for journalists. Both of those strands of my working life focused on content -- creating and editing, and making it possible to consume, find and share.
For pay, I currently write mostly in Typescript/Javascript, but I've previously worked in Scala, C++, C and Python.
See my CV (in the links sections) for more about that.
My interests include mindfulness and meditation, religion (in a very broad sense), Emacs (especially Org Mode) and Home Assistant.
