05 / Latest notes
What has my attention.
Short observations on technology, culture, food, family, and whatever else I’m thinking about.
Why is the Photos picker on macOS still so terrible? No easy access to albums, favorites, or media types. Just one giant, chaotic photo dump. Why can’t it work like the Photos picker on iOS? Apple, you literally already built the better version. Just bring it to the Mac. 😩
I’m sorry, but these leather Starfleet jackets are absolutely fire. And Pike’s hair? Somehow even more perfectly sculpted in the middle of total chaos. Priorities. 🔥🖖
Okay, “The Griffin Incident” may be the most gruesome episode of Star Trek I’ve ever seen. I was genuinely shocked by the level of gore. Strange New Worlds really said, “Let’s make a horror movie in space,” and fully committed. 😳
06 / Beyond work
Curiosity doesn’t clock out.
Based in Chicago, I’m also a proud beagle dad, amateur photographer, and frequent traveler who loves capturing the world through a creative lens. Whether I’m architecting a new digital experience or editing golden-hour shots, I bring the same curiosity, clarity, and care.
