Intro
Outside the grid
Outside the grid you can find me biking, playing music with my kids, watching DIY videos, building games, or inside The Chapel (my three car garage turned studio) nurturing my endless love affair for 80s New Wave.
Learning
I love to learn.
I appreciate there are so many options available today. I’m currently diving deeper into React JS and just obtained my white belt in Swift.
Reading
And read, especially to my kids.
How should a company innovate with MVPs and a Lean Startup methodology? Will Talenel escape Damnation to seek revenge on his brethren Heralds of the Almighty? Let’s find out!
Giving
And give back.
These are dear friends using the power of sport to protect, respect and support homeless and street-connected children. This is part of the change I want to see in our world and I'm thankful they let me tag along as a volunteer.
Recording
And create music, when time allows.
I grew up singing in our church choir but wanting to play drums. It was always drums. And in second grade, my passion for rhythm was met with a hand-me-down "keep it down" trumpet instead. In college I bought my first kit and started a band. Somehow one kit turned into two, and two turned into four guitars, twelve synthesizers, a home studio and decades of cherished memories. Here's a couple albums my friends and I made.
