Hi, I'm Ryan Wold đź‘‹

from Vacaville, California.

These are notes to myself.

Sorta like a sketchbook.

I'm a husband, father, and son.
Professional software engineer, amateur gardener.
I have strong preferences for teams who iterate quickly and work in the open.

I consult to teams on systems design and software delivery at Civic Studio.

Click around, and let me know what you think đź’­

Where is my mind?

Let's chat about

  • Open-source software development. I write a lot of software using things others have built and I try to share back when possible. I prefer to work in the open.
  • Bitcoin. Bitcoin is for everyone. I'm a fan of Bitcoin, the Scalable Version. I believe in Satoshi's Vision.
  • Baseball. I grew up playing baseball (SS, P). Walt Weiss era A's fan. Tim Lincecum era Giants fan. Nolan Ryan: the greatest. New fan of Elly de La Cruz.
  • Modular Architecture. Houses should work more like Legos™️. Distributed fab labs in communities can support a paradigm where we can more readily collaborate and evolve our homes.
