Hey! I'm a front-end focused engineer with over 10 years experience building video-related webapps. I've built broadcaster and consumer clients for a large live streaming site. I recently worked at a healthcare startup and led efforts to build out a behavioral health portal, connecting therapists with patients for virtual visits. I love being part of an effective team and enjoy mentoring junior engineers.

Technology-wise, I'm super comfortable with React, NodeJS for back-end services etc., and would enjoy branching out at a company that uses Next.js, React Native, Kotlin, Swift, or Rust. (I have some experience with these technologies, but not professionally)

Between jobs I've been building a large-scale LED project which is detailed at my portfolio site https://metal-heart.org

This doesn't jive with my experience. Sure, some listings are just renting you a place and leaving you be. But I've booked non-private rooms in places and had very accommodating and social hosts.

Tracking your workouts is important for debugging later - if you're not getting the results you want, how can you figure out the issue if you don't know what you've been doing?

If your goal is "general health" and you're doing okay, you're lucky (or you should set harder / more specific goals!) But as an example, I thought I was eating well, but when I started tracking my calories for a few months, I realized I had underestimated my daily calorie intake by about 400 calories, and I was still eating way too many carbs for what I considered to be a "low-carb" diet.

I'm also on Fitocracy (was using spreadsheets before) to track weightlifting - tracking is a necessity for lifting IMO.
