Guitar: as a kid I just thought it'd be awesome to shred. Now I mostly play acoustic fingerstyle, but shred some. Interest has ebbed and flowed over the years, but been playing forever.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: I wanted a challenge and to get good at something new. It's hard, but I like it and just keep coming back. Been doing it for a couple years and am a blue belt.

Hiking: did it as a kid, now I do it with my wife who pushes me to hike more than I would otherwise which is good

Tech stuff: coding, piracy, stuff like that. Dad was in IT and taught me to look for solutions with tech. Never stopped. I'm not a fantastic coder, but use it for work and also to solve personal challenges, enter piracy.

I just started a BJJ class when it was shut down by the pandemic :(

I definitely recommend it! Have to be very careful about staying safe, though. People don't take injuries seriously enough. But it's great exercise and very rewarding

I'll keep that in mind, thank you!
