Hi, I'm Ritchie

Welcome to my digital home since 2000. I'm a technology professional, parent, and serial rebuilder of perfectly functional things based in Vancouver, Canada. If something's broken here, I probably "improved" it last weekend. Take a look around and see what catches your interest.

Fair Warning

This is where I think out loud about whatever's currently occupying my mind. Most times it's stuff that may or may not have completely taken over my life.

I write to process my own learning and share what might be useful to others—assuming I haven't completely overthought myself into a corner again. No grand expertise claims here, just genuine curiosity and the occasional breakthrough that somehow survived my tendency to over-engineer everything.
