Hi, I'm Alex

Though friends call me "Al." I am a wearer of multiple hats.

One hat I wear is programmer (at OpenAthena.ai, building ML models for ocean physics). Another is traveler (recently from a fifteen-month long adventure with my wife). Another still is bean club member (at Rancho Gordo). But my favorite is probably the brown Stetson I once picked up from a cowboy store in Wyoming.

Sometimes I collect thoughts, songs, little notes – or, in the most desperate of times, posts. They can mostly be found here. Welcome to my collection!
