Hello, I'm Winston
I'm a Toronto-based optimist with a fondness for nuance, creativity, and growth. Professionally, my focus lies in the realm of the design, iteration, and maintenance of everyday websites from a front-end perspective. Intertwined with my professional life are my lifelong passion for video games and my fondness for the art of photojournalism and design.

A meaty conversation with Trevor Noah and Arthur Brooks on happiness today, the impact of technology on said happiness, and living: YouTube Link - March 6
A wonderful conversation between Trevor Noah and Malcolm Gladwell, that I took a while to warm up to, but gets to some really meaningful discussion about the value and benefit of people living "small lives": YouTube Link - February 9
What Now? Podcast: A wonderful, albeit periodically chaotic, conversation with Trevor, Cleo, and Eugene about the upside to being curious and optimistic in learning about the world and thinking about where we're headed. YouTube Link. - February 8
Toronto's long-in-the-tooth Eglinton Light Rail Transit (LRT) line finally opened to the public earlier this month, many days late, and several dollars over. CBC News Toronto with a comprehensive history via YouTube as to why that might've been the case (re: Infrastructure and multiple administrations are a terrible mix). - January 14
A cheeky bit of writing from Annie Mueller on what technical communication sounds like to non-technical folks. Satire aside, it's something I tend to reflect and place heavy emphasis on in the working world; I wish more developers, designers, and PMs followed suit.
