Background

I’m hard-working, motivated young man. A Jack of All Trades, I can do it all. I am a fast learner – spent much of my childhood and teenage years pondering the way things work and researching many subjects. I am an efficient worker, but only when it does not subtract from quality of the job. When working, I will persevere until the job is finished – I usually avoid leaving a job unfinished. I can solve almost any problem with ease because my mind is constantly seeking for a practical solution to anything. Not only do I only strive to fix problems but I also ponder improvement of working systems; “how could this be better? how could I be better?”. I am flexible – able to work many jobs or a variety of shifts or hours each day. I’m a good listener and can follow orders or learn quickly from watching and listening to a model or instructor. I am friendly and joyous – I like to kindly and genuinely greet and converse with people.

I created this website as an attempt to occupy my time. I indexed a variety of files that I collected across multiple websites and made them available for download on a server that I set up.

Activities and Interests

A jack of all trades – I do it all. Proficient with any technology, some construction, care for animals, playing music, agriculture/horticulture, cooking/baking, crafts, auto maintenance, and much more. If I were to talk in-depth about my hobbies, I would prioritize “trying new things” as my number one favorite hobby. When something piques my interest, I will research and experience the subject until I have a slightly advanced understanding. I tend to practice all of my interests as I am a hands-on, visual learner and reading and listening won’t always leave me sated.
