6 months deep

yesterday marked my 6th month at apple, which, in retrospect, is pretty incredible

I think the thing that amazes me the most isn’t necessarily just the company I work for, but rather the sheer whirlwind of a 6 months it has been since my onboarding, and in turn, how normal it feels now. since June I have uprooted my entire life in a fundamental way — leaving Texas, working full-time, adopting two knucklehead street cats — these are just a few examples of how different my world is.

even as I write this, I’m sitting in mainland china with a flight to Taiwan in the next 12 hours. hell, my first time even being outside of the states was during my post-graduation trip to Costa Rica. next thing I know im flying to the east like its nobodies business. this isn’t even my first trip (nor will it be my last)

I think I just want to take a moment to acknowledge this milestone. I’ve been so caught up with everything that I haven’t had much time to reflect, let alone write like I used to.

high school me would never have been able to guess the direction my life would take 🙂
