Part-time traveller, home cook & outdoor wanderer.

Full-time curious.

Hey, I'm Dan. I write software at Canva; the rest of the time I'm cooking, getting outside, or tinkering on some project. This is where I keep the food, the travels, and the odd note about my career.

A stated value

As AI gets more capable, I care about people keeping their privacy and their rights.

A lot of my work is consent and compliance, and I try to build it like I mean it.
