Hi, I'm Daniel
Welcome to my online home!
I'm a Product Manager, former Economist, board game and D&D nerd, and general dabbler in many things. I write about any topics that interest me, publish my notes on books, and occasionally make things I'm proud of. I love to meet new people – feel free to reach out on LinkedIn or Twitter!
