Hi, I’m John. I’m a 40-something tech director living in Montgomery, Alabama. I spend my days managing Apple macOS and iOS devices, a midsize to large multi-campus network, phones, and various other tech systems for a K-12 Independent School.

I’m married to a wonderful woman whose website design skills put mine to shame. She’s a constant source of inspiration, and I’m lucky to have her in my life.

My interests are pretty diverse. I love computers and electronics, and I enjoy spending time outdoors. I follow Formula 1 closely and cheer for the Packers. I also enjoy cooking and exploring new flavors in the kitchen, and lately, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for watchmaking and the craft behind mechanical timepieces. I used to be interested in internet culture and podcasts but I guess all things change.

I write about various topics, though I recently archived a lot of my older content to tidy things up. If you come across a 404 link, feel free to contact me—I can probably dig up what you’re looking for.

I used to be active on Twitter, but I also try to distance myself from controversial individuals such as musk, which led me to try out other platforms. Now, you can find me on Mastodon and Threads. the world has changed so much since I first wrote this not long ago. I do not post to social media anymore. find me on here or IRL.
