Age: 27, 3 months until I turn 28

Wow still can't believe I'm at Google. Life feels surreal sometimes. Very thankful for the people who helped me get here. Even though I hated more of my time at Amazon, I'm still very thankful to Amazon. I would not be here without it. I've decided to forgive and forget Amazon. Not going to be jaded and resentful anymore, and going to start over at Google. Being resentment is a burden. At Google, I hope I can prove to myself that I was always a good enough engineer, I was just put in the wrong environment and got unlucky.

Looking back to my 19 year old self, I feel like I've changed a lot to get here and had to grow up too fast. I hope that in the future, I can be carefree again.
