Who are your weirdos? andyet.com

We are ch-ch-changing and heading into a new adventure. @sarahavenir shares more details in our latest newsletter: mailchi.mp/andyet/yet-is-…

The fine folks @andyet did an interview profile of me, my work @Swae_io, and things that peak my personal curiosities. Those that know me well know about my obsession with #Doors 🚪. Read below if you care to 👇🏼

“I love creating systems of magic, applying as much science to it as possible, then picking apart the practicality of using it. If I ever ask someone, “If you could have any super power what would it be?”, it’s a setup question.” @mgreenj ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/mic…

“I am completely obsessed with shabby, broken, reconstructed, super beautiful, rough doors with a lot of history and character. I think they tell fascinating stories about the people that choose to live in those homes.” @soushiant ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/sou…

“I geek out about great sentences and sentence structure—have you ever considered how everything that you’re ever read has been delivered to you in a sentence? And how the form of those sentences affected the content of what you read?” @thisisguan ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/gua…

“I don’t believe in making life harder, especially for the sake of work. That concept seems ridiculous to me. So, by all means necessary, I’m going to protect my peace and do what I can to protect the peace of people around me.” @ChanitaXmas ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/cha…

“I collect writing advice. I’m enamored by the writing life and greedily consume stories about how writers approach the craft. Partly because it inspires me to write, but also because so much of the advice applies to life as much as writing.” @bb ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/bri…

“I like to think about the gray area of all things, and don’t live in black and white. That causes conversations to get very broad before they get narrow. I also love connecting with people, so I love to ask folks to unmute on big calls.." @natalienagele ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/nat…

“I’m obsessed with the brain, and it definitely shows in my work. I write about neuroscience, I tweet about brain myths, I post pictures of psychedelic mushrooms, and I create videos explaining how the mind works.” @anthilemoon ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/ann…

“The workshops I create for Bad Academy all stem from my obsession to dabble in everything! I’m curious about all subjects and so now when I find something interesting/want to learn more, I run a workshop about it 🙂” @pandakao ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/ama…

“I collect non-fiction books, stories about boringly competent customer service, and nice notepads that I’m too afraid to actually write in.” @mrpatto ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/mat…

“I geek out about K-pop, sociology and psychology, brand strategy and analysis, Star Wars, movies, romantic comedies, nature documentaries — especially marine biology!” @heyshenee ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/she…

“[C]ontent designers, UX writers, content engineers, content marketers …THESE ARE MY PEOPLE. They love words! And meaning! And connections, and big questions, and how to collaborate! Also, they are often hilarious and kindhearted.” @halvorson ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/kri…

“Story is the one thing that ties all my weird obsessions together. Music, art, cooking, film, books… they all center around great storytelling. As a product person you need to tell stories to succeed... It always comes back to story.” @robsicat ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/rob…

“My work brings my whole self and is very personal. It’s an idea I oppose - the idea that business is business and personal is personal. That dehumanizes business to maintain the focus on bottom line, vs centering people.” @ClarindaTBraun ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/cla…

“I geek out about economics. I’m really interested in the systems underlying how we “do business” for better or worse. I spend a lot of time studying and reading about different forms of anti-capitalist, feminist, Marxist Economics.” @_Wanderwell_ ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/kat…

“I’ve written about running, climbing, hiking, road-tripping, epistemology, kayaking, and all manner of other things in order to make a business idea more accessible.” @taragentile ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/tar…

“🌤️ A thing that makes me hopeful about the future of business: Deeper connection and meaning in our work over ratcheting up profits at the expense of others.” @skeevis ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/zvi…

“I do like the feeling of living lightly, of not being beholden to too many objects, whether they are physical or digital. It sounds trite, I know, but I like the idea of collecting experiences and friends.” @KaiBrach ourweirdosmightbe.yourweirdos.com/haveyoumet/kai…
