That’s a good word to describe myself. I struggle with the word “No” or “impossible”. I don’t believe in defined constraints – at least the ones that humans set for ourselves. There is more to this world than just what we think it is — people thought the world was flat not too long ago (in the grand scheme of things). And yes, there are still people who think the world is flat. I’ve met one. He was very convincing.
What is this website about? Good question. Queue my old resume….

That was my old resume, cerca 2012ish. Quite a bit has changed since then, but I will leave most of that a mystery for the time being. For those that are truly curious, it would not be that difficult to find more about me. But, this space is meant to be more of an opportunity of some musings that come across my mind. Not meant to be overly official or superfluous — maybe somewhere in the middle.
I may cover some things that I have an opinion about that you may not agree with. That’s okay. I’m open to your feelings, but I’m unmoved by any desire to please everyone. I’ve learned that’s not possible – you should too; or maybe you do already.
