My ramblings - a place where I hope to output what I'm learning on the off chance that it might help others including my future (forgetful) self.

I'm curious. I like good people, coding, pickles, coffee, cheese, chocolate, snowboarding, tennis, music, learning random things, etc. I live in BK but will travel for fun and adventures.

I started out my programming career as a Java dev, but later fell for Scala, which was my gateway drug to functional programming. Drinking deep from the FP well has caused me to visit the land of Haskell which, albeit intimidating at first, proved to be a rewarding visit. I've been addicted to coursera for years, and feel fortunate that there are so many knowledgeable people out there who enthusiastically share their knowledge. Thanks to all the people who have taught me and continue to teach me along the way! :beer: I raise my glass to you.
