Hello, people of the internet!
I’m super excited to welcome you to ctrl-alt-reset—my little corner of the web.
On the off chance you're not one of my friends I’ve sent this link to, head over to the About page to learn more about who I am.
So, what’s the purpose of this site? I have a vague idea—but before we get into that, let’s talk about why I wanted to create it in the first place.
The main reason is simple: I like making websites.
Anticlimactic, I know—but that’s really all there is to it.
More specifically, I like making pretty websites. Unfortunately, that’s not something I get to do often at my full-time job. I do get to work on a lot of cool stuff (which I’ll share more about in future posts), but that design itch still needs to be scratched. So I made this site to host my online presence—at least the parts that are suitable for public sharing.
Why include a blog?
Also simple: I like writing stuff.
It’s something I’ve always enjoyed.
That said, I wanted to avoid making yet another blog just about software development. Medium has that covered. Instead, I’m leaning toward something more like an online diary.
You might be wondering: Is this guy going to share what he had for breakfast?
Maybe—if it was really good. But more likely, you’ll see content on things I find interesting. And since my interests are pretty broad, that could mean anything from a coding tutorial to a sociological article.
Sure, it’s a strange mix. But honestly, that’s what excites me. Just imagine a dev stumbling onto a helpful tutorial here, loving it, then clicking around and finding wild, off-topic ramblings. That’s the vibe I’m going for.
What’s next?
I’ve got big plans for this site—rolled out whenever I find the time.
One of the first things I’ll do is move my (currently outdated) portfolio over here.
So, what can you expect from this site?
Only time will tell.
Until then, tune in and expect the unexpected.
