About

I'm a Santa Cruz native who has spent half my life hanging out in Southern California (Go UCLA Bruins! SDSU Aztecs! UCSB Gauchos! Palomar Comets!).

I like to play with spatial data, read good books, work on bicycles, and do stuff outdoors (surfing, riding all sorts of bikes, hiking).

Two worse maps I've ever seen: on the train to Casablanca; directions on the bus to downtown Portland:

Bad luck and good luck on two different visits home to Santa Cruz:
