こんにちは · hello

Professional curious person. Perpetual learner. Tinkerer.

Hey there! I’m Dave, an experienced software engineer and solutions architect, dog dad, car enthusiast, and enjoyer of Japanese culture, language, and media. I’m currently enrolled in WGU’s Accelerated Computer Science Bachelor’s and Master’s program, wrapping up the B.S. in January 2027, and preparing to take the JLPT N2 next year. I spend my days designing and building pretty cool stuff, and my downtime exploring manga and anime and turning my Genesis Coupe into a passion project. Welcome to my little slice of the internet.

Right now

A few things I’m into.

Two long games, at once.

    Finishing the bachelor’s in January 2027.
