Happiness Engineer. Cyclist. Traveler.

About

I help make the web more human at Automattic, then spend the rest of my time looking for better roads, better coffee, and the occasional excuse to say, yes, my middle name really is Cannon.

I write here the way I like to ride: curious, lightly overprepared, and very willing to take the interesting turn. The Cannon is a personal notebook for work, bikes, travel, and the connective tissue between all three.

Most days I am a Happiness Engineer, helping people build and repair their corner of the web. Off-screen, I am probably somewhere between a gravel route, a bikepacking list, and a half-finished thought that will become a post later.

This page should feel less like a resume and more like a quick coffee before a ride: enough context to know who I am, why I care, and where the story is going.

Support as craft

Happiness Engineering as patient, precise, human work.

Momentum outside

Road, gravel, trails, and the thinking that happens in motion.

Small details

Gear, places, writing, and the lived-in texture of a personal site.
