It's an #introduction post!

I live in #Seattle with my family, my wife @Andrle and our son. We love a lot of the same things — playing #VideoGames and #BoardGames, building with #lego , and reading #books. #StarTrek is of course a huge influence on us, too. 🖖🏻

I've been #vegan since 2015 and like to #cook when I can.

I am a Principal #SoftwareEngineer working at #AWS in #cloud #cybersecurity. I love to mentor newer engineers.

Forgot to post a very important #introduction addendum, the image that I think perfectly captures my relationship with #computers.

@ultranurd What sorts of stuff we’re you using Zipdisks for, at that age?
Show threadNicolas Ward Dec 3, 2022
@matt Some games I had copied from friends... and my main school project folder, since there was a Zip Drive in the library and I could bring things for printing. Also the ClarisWorks Database of my Star Trek CCG card collection 😆

@ultranurd Love it. I was always jealous of the kids who had Zip disks in college. Still have the #startrek cards?

@matt Some of them! I have a playable deck... and I found a complete bridge crew set at a mall a few years ago for $7 😆
