About:
Howdy! I'm a Berkeley resident working in the city for Trulia.com as a Principal Database Engineer. I built and maintain the Trulia DataWarehouse.
Interests:
My interests are all over the map, obviously I need more focus! I'm a student of Photography -- check out my photos at
http://www.shinylens.com. Also, I enjoy bicycling. It's been a while since I rode a century, but the bicycle is my primary transport, and more often than not I choose my folding Brompton bicycle complete with dynamo lights (W00t)! For reading, I'm partial to perusing technical books, but my favorite novel is Pride and Prejudice. Ideally I'd be reading said novel at Cafe Vivace in Seattle, as I love a good macchiato with fresh roasted beans. However, both Blue Bottle and Ritual are amazing too, so look for me there -- unless of course my wife is pulling the shots on her La Spaziale Vivalid II mini. So finally, when I'm all alone at the homestead, I love playing Halo 3 on the Xbox 360.
