What I’m Up to Now
The following is true as of July 2020.
I moved to Toronto in November of 2015, and started working for Acquia as a support engineer, and as of November 2019, a senior support engineer. I work with the U.S. east coast team, which is located in Boston, collaborating with them from Acquia’s downtown Toronto office.
Social media I keep updated:
- Twitter is where you can find my various witty remarks.
- Goodreads tells you what books I’m reading.
- Reading.am shows you what articles I’m reading.
- Letterboxd lists the movies I just watched.
I spend my free time doing things that the GPS in my iPhone enables, like playing Ingress and visiting microconfluences.
My latest programming project is a self-hosted tool that turns your a Slack channel into a Twitter client. I constantly look for ways to smash together public APIs, especially if there’s a geographic component.
As of September 2017, I have been a director for the Icelandic Canadian Club of Toronto, and since October of 2018 served as the secretary. I help out with the ICCT Twitter account and provide what insight I can to the board. As of November 2019, I have been a board member of the Garment District Neighbourhood Association and I maintain the online properties (Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, as well as manage our back-end tools).
I've been coping relatively well with the COVID-19 pandemic. I have a tag of posts related to just that on my blog.
Some sub-sites I maintain:
I still think the scene in Spaceballs where they watch themselves in the movie ("We’re at now now!”) is hilarious.
