What I’m Up To Now

Last Updated: 2025-07-31

Around the end of February I joined a remote company, Roboflow, as an Analytics Engineer. It’s been fun to focus on a completely new area of technology for me, computer vision. Now that I know how it works, it feels like every problem in the real world I face, I try discover how it could be solved with Vision AI.

While ramping up at a new job, I decided that I no longer wanted to be running a data meetup, so I handed it over to good hands locally. I’m still on the hunt to fill an event void in the Austin, but I don’t think I’m interested in running professional events at the moment.

Work has enabled me to travel much more than previously, which is a nice change of pace. In four months, I’ve been to Salt Lake City, Chicago, and New York. Part of it is because the company invites employees to hold “lighthouses” in remote locations and gives you the budget to do it. Part of it is because my wife gets a work benefit of 4 remote weeks per year, so we’re trying to take advantage of it.

We worked from Chicago and New York for an entire week. During the day, I explored new neighborhoods. During the evening, we went to great restaurants and local shows. In general, my learnings here are that I really like picking a neighborhood and flitting around. Feeling nomadic brings me back to how it felt while I was in Europe for 6 weeks.

I finally had to retire my gaming PC of 8 years and purchase something new. Emotionally, it was hard for me because the gaming PC was a gift from my first boss. However, it’s nice to finally be able to play a backlog of great games in Ultra quality.

What I’m Doing Now

This list feels smaller than last time, which makes me feel bad. But on a whole, I’ve got consistently planned activities 3 out of 7 days each week.
