Now
Most websites have an About page where you can learn about the background of the person or business. They have a Contact page where you can reach out. In contrast, a Now page is an up-to-date summarized snapshot of where a person is focused on, at this very moment.
What have I been up to, lately?
Updated as of September 27, 2025.
Living in Toronto (ON) in Canada, as of early July.
Working full-time at Google in the Developer Relations team in Google Cloud. Nearing my 5th anniversary!
Most recent international trip was a 3-weeks vacation in Japan I did this past October, with trips to Salt Lake City (UT), Chicago (IL), Las Vegas (NV), Vancouver (BC), Edmonton (AB), Calgary (AB), New York (NY), Montreal (QC), and Atlanta (GA) in 2025 so far. For the remainder of the year I have plans for New York (NY), Boston (MA), Montreal (QC), San Francisco (CA), Seattle (WA), and Vancouver (BC).
Still working on my side project XIV ToDo regularly, and finally having some time to finish up my personal website revamp (you’re currently looking at it!) I’m also working on-and-off on a spec-compliant IRC client.
Still rock climbing! It’s been just about 2 years now and I’m able to reliably top most 5.10x routes. I was able to top one or two 5.11x route, but that’s still a work in progress. Although I’ve been more sporadic about it since moving to Toronto.
Picked up learning Japanese again, after a long hiatus. Aiming to take the JLPT N4 in December.
