A Little About Me

Hey, welcome! 👋

I’m Doug. I’m an educator, a tech enthusiast, an amateur radio operator (yep, a “ham”), a photographer, and, more recently, a vintage typewriter collector. I also do on-site tech work, which keeps me tinkering with gear and solving problems on the go. If that sounds like a lot of hats, well, it kind of is. But that’s what keeps things fun.

Teaching is at the core of what I do. It’s not just a profession for me. It’s genuinely what I love. There’s nothing quite like that moment when something clicks for a student. That feeling never gets old.

When I’m not teaching, you’ll probably find me doing one (or more) of these:

  • Geeking out over the latest tech, especially anything in the Apple ecosystem
  • Clacking away on one of my vintage Smith-Corona typewriters (I have three and counting)
  • Making contacts on amateur radio with people thousands of miles away
  • Chasing the next great photo, whether it’s a landscape, a candid moment, or something abstract that caught my eye
  • Diving into a good book, audiobook, or podcast

I started this blog as a place to write about the stuff I’m genuinely curious about. No agenda. No niche strategy. Just me, sharing what I find interesting and hoping some of it resonates with you, too.

Thanks for stopping by.
