I am a journalist turned software engineer turned tech startup founder. That's a lot of pivots but I am just going along with the flow and trying out different things.
I am an easy-going, clean, respectable individual. I love to work out, hiking and dancing, live comedy and music shows.
I have been living in the bay area for more than four years and know a lot of cool spots nearby. My place is in the middle of the city and very accessible to the east bay and south bay via trains, buses, and fairies.
