About Me

Hello! My name is Adam and I'm new to CS :) I grew up in Vancouver, but I left in 2011 to do a master's degree in Amsterdam and I haven't looked back since. After I graduated, I've done a lot of editorial and photographic work relating to the humanitarian sector as well as cities/architecture (I even helped write a book; it's called Pop-Up City). I've been a slight digital nomad since 2016, as I work remotely as an editor for the United Nations.

My two biggest interests are ice hockey and craft beer :) I also read quite a bit (mostly non-fiction, especially things about cities and popular culture), mostly while our delightful cat tries to interrupt me.
