Building systems that outlast their builders.
I've always been bothered by how easily people just accept things. Work, money, the way we're supposed to live—everyone treats it like it's carved in stone. But I can't do that. When I see the gap between what is and what could be, I have to do something about it.
Depth, integrity, and imagination aren't nice-to-haves. They're essential. How we make things matters just as much as what we're making.
People say I'm calm—steady, maybe. When things get chaotic, I tend to see the pattern underneath it all. I'm not the loudest person around, and I'm okay with that. But somehow I often end up being the one people turn to for perspective.
