I'm Matt. I build stuff with Typescript and C++.

I have an insatiable appetite for learning and in my spare time I'm always improving my skills (I'm currently taking a course on Compiler design from Cornell University and a database engineering course from Carnegie Mellon University. I've made Youtube videos highlighting the triumphs/challenges I've experienced while doing these courses).

These are my thoughts, opinions and lessons learned. My goal is to inspire people to improve their tech skills. Lately I've discovered the power of working towards your goal with 1-2 hours per day of deliberate practice. With that time investment, you'd be shocked at how much you can learn in only 1 year.

Find me on LinkedIn if you want.
