About

Adam, smiling, chin in hand, at a window table on a ferry.

I'm Adam. I'm a software engineer and an engineering manager, and I live in Seattle with my family. I moved here from Austin at the end of 2021.

For work I run two engineering teams at Truemed, where I was the first engineer. The longer version is on Career.

Outside work

I take photos, mostly on my Fuji X100VI but I've been dabbling in film. A few of the cameras I use - Zeiss Ikon ZM, Canon AE-1, Olympus XA. Lately, I've mostly been shooting lifestyle photos with the family but I enjoy street, travel, architecture, and minimal scenes.

I dance salsa (on2) after deciding to try to learn something that scared me. Turns out that was a great decision since it is how I met my wife.

I follow Arsenal and a bit of the Sounders.

I enjoy wine. I enjoy it so much that I joined Vinovest after becoming a user. Maybe one day I'll finish that WSET certificate.

I hike when the weather lets me and travel when I can. A few highlights are Japan, Spain, London, Mexico City, and Albania for Anjunadeep Explorations.

If any of this overlaps with you, send me a note.
