Now

Life

I am a thinker and one idea that I continue to ponder each day has spawned from a thought-provoking conversation during an interview with Tim Mackie of The Bible Project. In response to a question about how we frame our life with Jesus in our day-to-day, Tim Mackie highlighted the ongoing battle we face: the temptation to do what is best for ourselves and redefine good and evil according to our own convenience, comfort, and benefit – often at the expense of those around us.

This quote has stayed with me because it speaks to a fundamental human struggle. Many of our problems are self-inflicted, causing the destruction that we lament. The challenge lies in recognizing the roles we play and the beings we parter with (intentionally or unintentionally) that shape our understanding of what is “good.”

Work

I’m working at GoDaddy alongside an amazing team to build the best experiences we can. Most of my job is experimenting with the Block Editor in WordPress for internal projects which may eventually become open source as well as many already open source projects such as CoBlocks and the Go theme. My focus right now is practicing and learning how to be better at leading multiple projects and team members, planning and time management to manage expectations, and communication to round it all out. I’m being challenged each day and that drives me to give everything I have.
