Now

Last edited May 24, 2025

This page is based on Derek Sivers’ Now movement. It is designed to be a quick look into what is, and has been, going on in my life.

🏆 Living

My partner and I are living on the Sunshine Coast with our dog Barry. We have a pretty quiet life, mostly spent in each other’s company watching TV, going for walks or spending time with our friends/family. Recently we’ve been focusing on our health, both physical and mental - trying to be the best we’s, we can be

Oh and we’re getting married this year 👑

đŸ’ģ Working

I’m currently working in the Workplace Technology team at Open. My next big objective here is to enable us to utilise Terraform for our IdP management

📚 Reading

I mostly enjoy fiction stories, but want to start reading books to improve personal skills as well. Check out my GoodReads account for more

  • 🔮 Fiction

    • 🚀 Project Hail Mary was my most recent finish - another excellent read. First person story telling is normally lost on me, but it plays a large part of the character development in this book, and it’s done masterfully. Fist my bump!
    • đŸ—Ąī¸ The Way of Kings is my current obsession. I attempted to branch out from Sanderson’s work for a bit, but ultimately couldn’t take my mind off it, so here we are. Definitely a slow start, but I’m excited to see how Kaladin’s story progresses
    • đŸ”Ĩ Between Two Fires is on and off in my spare time, the start was a bit rough to be reading at 10pm when I started the book - but the book’s concept intrigues me, so I’ll keep going. Unfortunately no audiobook for this one, so full on eyepower here.
  • 📈 Improvement

    • 🧑‍đŸ’ģ Terraform: Up & Running was suggested for me to pick up to support my current work goals - I haven’t really read a technical book before, interested to see how it goes.

đŸŽŦ Watching

TV shows are my household’s biggest media consumption by far, we will often throw stuff on in the background while going about our day-to-day activities

đŸ•šī¸ Gaming

I have a massive backlog of games, so naturally I will replay the old favourites instead. When the urge does strike to play something new, I’ll typically pick up a story-based game I can sink my teeth into.

🎧 Listening

I’m not vibing anything in particular at the moment, just sorta throwing on my liked songs whenever I want some background noise. Check out my Last.fm account for more
