After leaving my last job I had intended to complete Kernel, an eight week peer-to-peer learning community / course and return to Engineering Management but our infant care fell apart during the middle of it. After struggling to find suitable care for our newborn we decided it would be best if I took some time off to care for our last baby, work on some projects and learn some new things.

I built a house with my brother. Just my brother Kevin Langdon, his friend Kevin Scheimreif and me. I was involved during the first phases of construction when we dug and poured the foundation. Put up the walls, roof and all the windows & doors. At the end of my time on the house it was fully enclosed. Kevin & my brother continued on finishing the interior.
