in high school I would pack buttered toast, bacon, lettuce, and tomato in separate bags and assemble BLTs for lunch every day

my family has always been chill about gaming. my parents still occasionally help me with flights to smash tourneys and speed marathons. as a kid my bro and I and our grandfather had to all take turns playing snes

before engineering school I went to art school, long before I knew almost all of you. I don't do much with that particular talent anymore unfortunately

my favourite flowers are daisies :)

I talk a lot about being a dev but my current job is actually my first ever dev job. before this I worked in UX design, tutoring, health care, and TV research

before I got into speedrunning I streamed ssb tourneys and casual RPGs, usually blind
