How to reach me
- Message me first (email or Slack) — I reply once I've had time to think, not instantly.
How to work with me
To work effectively with me, it's essential to keep our communication clear and focused. I appreciate when you set the beat before dropping the verse, as it helps me process information better. I prefer asynchronous communication, so feel free to send messages when it suits you, but please keep them concise and to the point. I thrive on direct feedback, especially when it comes in the form of questions that guide me toward the answers you seek.
In our interactions, I value moments when you truly listen and engage in real talk. Just like a skier navigates the slopes, I appreciate clarity and direction without overwhelming details. If you can stick to one topic at a time, it will help me stay on track and avoid information overload. Together, we can create a productive dialogue that allows us to tackle challenges efficiently and effectively.

Avoid
