What else I do
I love playing games that bring people together, which currently includes a potentially unhealthy amount of Destiny and Elite Dangerous.
Iโm also a bit of a PC hardware nerd and Iโm very experienced in building computers and mechanical keyboards. No, I wonโt fix yours.
My partner and I have several pets, all of which may starve if you donโt hire me. Here is a picture of the dumbest one.
Pictured: Miso, the dumbest one.
I know youโre probably trying to read over my past experience and this image keeps distracting you, and that isnโt really great for the flow of the page, but I just need more people to see it.
