What I'm up to now

What is this?

This is a /now page, inspired by Derek Sivers. It's a snapshot that's intended to give you an idea of what's actually going on in my life, now.

Work

I recently started working at Q-CTRL, based out of a small but growing Oxford office. I'm on the Navigation Deployment team, working on GPS-free magnetic navigation.

Training

Slowly building running volume, and trying to keep up weekly gym and swim sessions as well.
Upcoming events: Oxfordshire Triathlon (Olympic distance) in August, Loch Ness Marathon in September.

Reading

I've been enjoying re-immersing myself in the Cosmere and slowly catching up on everything I missed in the last few years.
