Hi, I'm Eryn Wells. This is my website. Welcome!

Here are some of my most recent posts.

## Personal

I'm a queer trans woman, {{< tess >}}' partner, and mom of [two cats][cats]. I
was born in Seattle, {{< abbr Washington >}}WA{{< /abbr >}} and grew up in
Phoenix, {{< abbr Arizona >}}AZ{{< /abbr >}}. I attended [Oberlin College][ob]
where I got a degree in Computer Science. My pronouns are [she/her][pronouns]. 

You can read more about me on my [about][ab] page, or [get in touch][where-am-i].

## Professional

I've worked as a software engineer since 2011 for a variety of companies around
the San Francisco Bay Area. I joined [Apple][a] in 2016, where I currently work
on password management and authentication technologies.

My [résumé][r] has all the details.

## Hobbies

When I'm not working, you can reliably find me hacking on this website or [some
coding other project][gh]. I'm also a musician, and play piano, Irish tin
whistle, and modular synthesizer. Occasionally I [record][bc] [things][sc]. I
love outer space and astronomy; I will always get excited to look at the moon
with you, or check out anything through a telescope. I enjoy [photograhy][p],
mostly as a travel hobby. And I've been practicing iaido, a traditional Japanese
sword art, since early 2024. Other things I've been into include: bread baking,
bicycling, calligraphy, ceramics, and knitting.
