## Hobbies
I've been a musician for most of my life. I started on the piano at age seven,
played trumpet in high school, and have picked up a smattering of other
instruments along the way. I still play piano occasionally, but my current
musical obsession is my modular synthesizer. I occasionally record things, and
I'm hoping to share them here on this site, but for now, they're on
[SoundCloud][sc] and [Bandcamp][bc].
played trumpet in high school, and have picked up an assortment of other
instruments along the way. As an adult, I got very into modular synthesizers for
a while. I still play piano here and there, and occasionally one of the other
things. I also sometimes record things, and I'm hoping to share them here on
this site, but for now, they're on [SoundCloud][sc] and [Bandcamp][bc].
I do try to spend my non-work time away from the computer, but every so often I
get inspired to hack on something. Those projects usually end up on
[GitHub][gh].
