some things I've done

writing

I write on many topics, including nonprofit thoughts like my small-to-mid-size nonprofit tech stack recommendations, personal thoughts like when I left the for-profit world for a while (and when I came back), the melancholy of COVID, grief, running, travel thoughts and photography like my trip to Uganda (in two posts), and tutorials like setting up a Solana vanity wallet or building a retro gaming system with Batocera.
