Chess
I’m a big chess fan. Here are three puzzles from some of my favorite ways to close out a game!
White to move. Mate in 1.
Other stuff.
Outside of work, I’m a huge photography nerd and a digital artist. I stream my art on Twitch, and when I’m not drawing I’m probably working through my ever-growing backlog of movies (suggestions appreciated!) or playing chess.
Digital art
Photography
I got into photography helping my dad shoot his listings back when he was a realtor. It slowly turned into a hobby, and now I’ll shoot pretty much anything, from flowers to city streets. Everything here is on my Canon EOS M50.
Favourite films
Film is probably my biggest design influence. A good director decides where you look and how long you stay there, which is lowkey most of interaction design.
