About me

Hi! My name is Kevin, and I live in New York with Danielle. My interests include programming, economics, and urbanism. In my free time, I like to try out new restaurants (New York has a lot of them) and surf the web.

I grew up in Johns Creek, GA, where I had an idyllic, suburban childhood full of high school gossip and bubble tea. After that, I studied computer science at Duke, before working on mobile APIs and notifications infrastructure at Asana. Now I'm an algo engineer at Hudson River Trading.

Sometimes web forms complain that my last name has too few letters and ask me to fix it.
