Hello, world!
Thanks for stopping by. I’m David (he/him/his).
I’m a software engineer, education enthusiast, and animal advocate. I’m also a volunteer for my community’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s.
I speak a little Italian, and I’m learning Spanish. I have a deep fascination with languages (both natural and constructed), and I’m particularly passionate about etymology.
I love building things that people can use to create.
Since I started programming, I’ve made tools and apps for people to play with - programming language construction kits, text generators, drawing utilities, games. My latest projects focus on procedurally generated output with varying levels of customization.
I like to use technology in unexpected ways, leveraging randomness to provide unique experiences. Humans have an amazing ability to find patterns in chaos, and novel encounters inspire creativity the most.
