  • 2024-11-24: - This website is **built upon Indie Web principles.
    • I continue to use Notion with Super to reduce technical friction in updating my website, and to make myself overcome perfectionism by publishing quickly.
      • To serve you better, I modeled after jamesclear.com because he communicates benefits of his website and services superbly.
      • I also modeled this site after Nate Kadlac’s because of his supreme design tastes and skills. I took his design course too, which I highly recommend!
      • My website continues to be a “public” Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) system.
        • I use Apple Notes for quick jot-downs like grocery lists and notes to self.
        • I use Google Docs for drafts inviting collaboration.
        • I wish Notion is faster and supports offline sync. ☹️
  • 2024-04-14: Wow, it’s been almost exactly a year! I made a detour to try using framer.ai to build this site. It ended up being quite a frustrating process because of the hassle of a CMS port and not-great defaults for non-designers. Luckily super.so has improved, with the ability to make nested nav bars and custom fonts, so I switched back.
  • 2023-04-16: Updated to better serve you with clearly outlined services. Archived the old site below:

      • Live Notes are what they are, taken during an event/talk!
      • Lists & Tips are lively and ephemeral pre-ideas.
  • 2021-10-16: Switched from Fruition to Super for better security, nav bar, and theming options. Fruition, you had served me well as a free, open-source tool.
  • 2021-09-07: Enrolled in Write of Passage Cohort 7, updating website according to the coursework!
  • 2021-02-15: Switched to using Notion with Fruition to make updating my website easier with less technical friction.
  • 2020-06-01: Added commonplace category descriptions, welcoming banner, fix URL capitalizations (changed to all lower case)
  • 2020-05-16: Updated fonts and layout to improve website esthetics. In particular, used Kevin McGillivray’s typeguide.css, which is in turn inspired by Butterick’s Practical Typography.

    Updated Website Look and Feel

  • 2020-02-??: The base Jekyll theme used is Reverie, created by Amit Merchant based on a fork of jekyll-now. Thanks Amit!
