Hi, I’m Trevor.
Welcome to my new website. This is a bit of an experimental design, but one that I’m much more interested in keeping updated and writing to frequently: This website intentionally has no table of contents, no explore, etc1. I want to try to make this website to be more of a conversation with me rather than a repository of useless writings, a choose your own adventure if you will. This website will be almost like a wiki of my thoughts (this does mean that the webpages have to be strongly connected in a graph-theory sense). I’m using the Quartz Framework to run and build this website off Obsidian so it’s a lot easier to write.
This website will be pretty raw and unfiltered. Although some ideas may seem harsh I’m just trying to be clear and I’m always happy to discuss content.
An email link should appear here eventually…
It’s also heavily under construction, so 404 errors might be quite common.
By making this website, I’ve learned how important it is to put things into writing. Personally, I use a personal writing system that I’ve found to be pretty useful. The pages you see here are mostly a result of that system. I’m also trying to motivate myself and just do something personal and public.
As a bit of an introduction, I’m currently doing a PhD in electrical engineering. In addition to doing good research, I’ve learned it’s important to convey ideas clearly to audiences, especially non-technical ones. I’m quite into fitness, and I think everyone can be as well. Competing in sports is always fun, but I like a bit of friendly competition in lots of other places as well, whether that be watching sports, playing video games, or board games. To support my appetite, I also had to learn how to cook well to make it bearable, so naturally I’m quite into food as well.
Recent updates:
- I’ve been getting quite annoyed with health science charlatans and thinking about why they’re so convincing to the general public when it’s obvious to technically minded people why they’re lying.
- I finally made the switch to start using justfiles in all my projects, big or small. They are amazing. It’s so much easier to update this website. I just type
just publishand it’s magically updated! No more need to remember link, build, and copy commands.

As a concession I do provide a search bar. This can get you back to a page you’ve been to but don’t remember how to get to (much to my chagrin but it helps me to debug and i’m too lazy to turn it off when I post it publicly) as well as see if something exists even when my web is not well maintained. ↩
