What I’m Doing Now

This now page was last updated on March 9th, 2025.

Traveling

I’ll be in Toronto, Ontario for a few days at the beginning of April for a work trip. No other travel planned at the moment.

Learning

I’m currently teaching myself how to play the piano. I’m studying how to read and write music, and practicing scales and chords daily to work on my muscle memory.

Reading

I’m currently reading Figuring, by Maria Popova, and Diaspora, by Greg Egan.

Writing

I’ve started writing Morning Pages—three pages of longhand, stream of consciousness writing first thing in the morning. It’s been a really interesting experience over the past week, and I think I’ll be sticking with it for a while.

I also started writing poetry. It’s providing a nice outlet for creative energy and out-of-the-box thinking.

Listening

Vulfpeck’s new album, Clarity of Cal, is a lot of fun. In September, I’ll be headed to the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles to see Hiatus Kaiyote and Snarky Puppy perform.
