Interests

What I do when I am not building robots.

Squash

Still the best hour of exercise I know, and the only sport where thinking two shots ahead beats being fitter than the other person.

Space

Watching the most interesting engineering problem of the century get solved in public.

Formula One

Engineering as a spectator sport. The car that wins is the one whose team learned fastest.

Pickleball

The sport everyone's parents took up, and they were right.

Mountain biking

Texas trails, mostly.

Travel

Not my jet 🙂

AI and robotics

The interest that stopped being a hobby. What I am building →
