Time in the Forest/Garden

Gainesville, FL

Around early 2018, I "left the world" so to speak for some time. Offline and intentionally isolated among Laurel Oaks, mildew and venomous snakes. Went deep into programing screens and synthesizers. Made videos of flowers and bees. Crept into an uberman sleep cycle until you find yourself getting angry at pieces of rocks. Self taught C# than C++. Things turn to rust sooner than I expected.

Favorite Bird: Osprey
Favorite Synth: Moog Mother32

Business Owner Years

Stuart, FL

I started a small furniture studio that quickly turned into a full scale manufacturing business. Most of the money went back into space, people and machinery. Spent just as much of my days working as in the kitchen. I never actually got to work on the things that drew me into the space; I kept some of the tools, maybe one day I'll make a good chair.

Duties Performed: Chief Operator, Woodworker, Welder, CNC Operator, Supplier Relations, Cardboard packing specialist.
Reason Ended: Burnt out, Moved to the country.

Early Life

Hudson Valley, NY

I was born in the USA to a Greek Cypriot immigrant and a mother that left when I was around 4. My first memories are in a trailer park in the 55+ section, taste testing little meat balls on the porch with the Mets game on the radio. Raised as a Roman Catholic by my stepmother. Got a red huffy bike, than a bunch of BMX bikes. Built ramps, hung out in the woods and fell down alot of handrails. Played guitar in a metal band and lived in the back of a '94 Chevy Blazer and friends couches. Cut grass for money and built some really nice Pennsylvania bluestone patios.

Reason Ended Went to engineering school so I could work at NASA
