I share a birth year with my first computer. RIP Radio Shack.

I have tools that get used and a bookshelf curated by insatiable curiosity.

Everything I've learned, the hard way. Knowing this hasn't changed much.

Empirically speaking, education acquired by trial, error, and fire is more relevant albeit less valuable than paying for one.

Acceptance is not consent any more than it is revelatory.

Self-awareness is key.

Perspective is helpful in both life and technical drawing.

Travel is paramount.
