About

Hi there, my name is Christian.

Professionally, I'm a design leader, strategist, researcher, technologist, one-time software engineer (I still dabble), and advisor.

Semiprofessionally, I am a transdisciplinary scholar, cybernetician, and soon-to-be-published author.

Outside of work, I consider myself a small-time adventurer, incorrigible raconteur, middling billiards player, and a quiet—hopefully kind—person about town.

This is my personal website.

What I'm up to

Since 2007 I've remixed passion projects, self-directed study, and wide-ranging internet spelunking into whatever I happen to be doing in a professional capacity, and vice versa.

Work history

I'm turning this here World Wide Web property into an information garden to organize some of what I’ve learned for my own reflection and your perusal.
