I’m an electrical engineering student, with a day job as a database administrator. I spend a little free time playing around with web technologies as well, which led to this website. My interests include math and disc golf—

“Perhaps an angel of the Lord surveyed an endless sea of chaos, then troubled it gently with his finger. In this tiny and temporary swirl of equations, our cosmos took shape.”

• Martin Gardner, Order and Surprise, 1950

One of my main requirements for this website is that it feels snappy. For that reason, I don’t use any frameworks or fetch any external content. I use a static site generator, Hugo, and a custom theme. If you’re familiar with Hugo, feel free to make suggestions about my theme setup on the GitHub repo.

If you have noticed the “glowing” pattern on certain words in any poem series, that’s the result of an idea I had to highlight important themes. Whenever the page is loaded, your device counts the instances of all words on-page and randomly chooses some of the most used words to highlight. This process is done using Web Assembly compiled from Go, because I much prefer it to JavaScript.
