Engineering @figma, formerly @twitter. Photographer, runner, cyclist. It never gets easier, you just go faster.
New York, NY
Joined January 2007
My time is up, 11½ y to the day. Saturated by extreme, dissonant emotions. Grieving for the years of grit, passion, perseverance. Unexpectedly liberated through deus ex machina. The person I am today doesn’t recognize the person I was then, and that’s due to the people, always 🫡

Shout out to all the workers at Twitter. You all built a vital place for connection and deserved so much better. Millions of people appreciate the space you built and the hard work that went into it. Thank you 💙

@couch Everything we do in tech is a performance piece. Most of it doesn’t last even a few years. We only have an opportunity to play something of value or interest while we can, to influence the discussion and to enjoy the ride as much as we’re able. I think you’ve done amazingly.

Just had my briefcase with work laptop stolen from a fast causal restaurant on Park Ave, but thanks to a delivery courier who pointed me in the thief’s direction, I found him and took it back! 2 for 2 on both coasts!! Do not fuck with me!!!

When people ask me why I moved to NYC, I’m just going to point them to this.
