somewhere between dreams and reality

"Motivation, mindfulness, and life lessons — simple words to spark big change."

I am a writer who believes that life itself is one of our greatest teachers. My work is shaped by personal experiences, quiet observations, and the lessons that come from moments we never planned. Through thoughtful storytelling and reflective writing, I explore themes of growth, resilience, change, and the emotional journeys that shape who we become. I write to make sense of life’s unexpected chapters and to connect with readers who find meaning in honesty and lived experience.

Amateur photographer in Northern Michigan whose primary motivation is to experience and see the world. Noticing and connecting with what's around me comes first and the photos come after.

I like people and computers. Professionally, CEO of Ramensoft and former CTO and co-founder of Factorial.

I’m a writer, designer, and teacher based near Madrid. I write about the craft of writing and share prompts to help you (re)start your writing practice in a series called Third Room Letters. Along the way, I explore creative writing, teaching, mental health, technology, and life across cultures.
