Hi, I’m Chris.
napping, circa 2025
I’m a software engineer interested in developer tools and code aesthetics. I’ve done some occasional research as well.
I’ve previously worked at 
Dagster, 
Airbnb, 
Facebook, and 
Microsoft.
Outside of work, I’m a lifelong jazz guitar player and outdoorsman.
Two Weeks of Nothing
I had an exciting few months. I went on a many-month anticipated family trip, switched jobs, and moved in with my partner. The latter two were concurrent. Now, I have about two weeks before my new job begins. Two weeks of nothing. I’m somewhat financially solvent, enough that I could consider going on a long trip. But I wanted to take this time to explicitly do nothing exciting, mostly because I just felt exhausted by the logistics the past few months required. I didn’t want to figure anything out ahead of time. So I set out with more or less no plan for what to do.
