Now
Updated:
I live with my wife and two boys in Ballard, Seattle. We live in an old Craftsman that still needs a lot of work, and maybe we'll get around to that before we pass it along.
Work
I'm a front-end developer at the University of Washington School of Law, and I'd like to stay here until I retire and collect my lovely union pension.
I manage the public facing website as well as email marketing, and collaborate with Law IT on the help desk and other projects. I'm currently focusing on web standards and accessibility, and am a UW IT Accessibility Liaison and a UW Information Security Advocate, and participates in the Accessible Web, Front-end Technologies, User Experience & Design Thinking and Web Council communities of practice.
My Bookshelf
I can't ever seem to read one book at a time, but here's what I'm currently leaving in various states of having been started and soon to be resumed:
- Foundation by Isaac Asimov
- Rocannon's World by Ursula K. LeGuin
- Why Look at Animals? by John Berger
- Doppelganger by Naomi Klein
- Capitalist Realism by Mark Fisher
- A People's Guide to Capitalism by Hadas Thier
- Portraits by John Berger
- The Mother of All Questions by Rebecca Solnit
- The Reactionary Mind by Corey Robin
- Citizens to Lords by Ellen Meiksins Wood
- Inclusive Components by Heydon Pickering
- CSS Secrets by Lea Verou
This is My Jam
Does anyone remember that site? It was the last hopeful reach of the old internet before it slipped away forever.
But my current jam is the entire debut EP by Mould, featuring Joe Sherrin of SLONK!
