Glad To Meet You!

My name is Eli I only really write in lists, so here's my deal.

  • I am a 🧑‍💻 generalist software engineer thriving in the time of AI.
  • I love to plan and 👨‍🍳 cook elaborate meals. It really activates the engineering part of my brain!
  • I have a 🤓 non-traditional computer science education. I attended a vocational school in high school, taught myself web programming, bounced around colleges for computer science while working the entire time before deciding to go pro!
  • I am a Vim Logo Vim user but I actively encourage everyone to use something else. Using Vim in 2026 is a cool bar trick.
  • I currently live in 📍 Astoria, Queens. I didn't think I would settle down in Queens and love it as much as I do, but life is like that sometimes.
  • I have a 😼 fat cat named Fonzie and I sorta have a tattoo of him on my arm.

How I'm Feeling

Seven years ago, I decided to start journaling my feelings. Being a software engineer, I made an API out of it and put it on my website. The favicon for the site the emoji for my latest entry.

I felt good

🥩 📚 💆‍♂️ 🌞
  • Took the baby to a pediatric oral surgeon, turns out she had a lip and tongue tie, which explains the issues with feeding! That got nipped the in the bud and she’s on the road to recovery.
  • The surgery part of this happened in front of us and really made Rachel emotional. I thought it was cute, but maybe I’m weird.
  • Baby’s first train ride was a success! She slept through it because of the numbing agent, but still, good job Liddie!

Do You Code?

I have always been a full stack software engineer out of necessity. I am curious and love to dive into the deep end and help out however I can. With AI, I have been able to supercharge these attributes. No task is too big (for me to plan) or small (delegate to an agent to one-shot).

Are You A Blogger?

I'm certainly trying to be! I try to write four posts a year. Sometimes I exceed it, other times, I completely whiff. No pressure though. Below are some of my favorite posts.

📝 Let's quickly run through my life and see how ADHD has effected it.

What I'm Reading

I am an avid reader and here's what I've been reading. You can find me on Goodreads.

What I'm Listening To

I listen to way too much music and I love to listen to full albums. I mainly listen to hip hop, indie rock and emo. I occasionally write reviews of old albums that I love but aren't well known in a series called ICYMI.

In order to listen to more new music, I created Album Mode.party, which recommends me albums that Spotify's algorithims would never dare show me. It's the first application I have built that I use daily!
