off the clock

The stuff I do when I'm not shipping code. Most of it involves going somewhere high, going somewhere fast, or hitting something over a net.

pranav@uf ~/life $ cat alpine/summit.log

Alpine

What pulls me up there is the places. Glacier water so blue it looks fake, goats that couldn't care less that you showed up, a ridge turning pink at sunrise while the valley is still asleep. It's quiet up there in a way nothing else is, and everything gets simple: keep moving, watch the weather, look out for whoever's with you.

Alpinism is how I get more of that. Every trip asks a little more of me, and the ones that turn me around, like Adams, teach me the most. The long game is to become a good enough mountaineer for the hardest peaks in the world, Denali first.

Mount Siyeh

10,014 ft

Glacier National Park, Montana · 2026 · fifth-highest peak in the park

From Cracker Lake its north face is one of the biggest walls in the Rockies: about 4,000 feet of banded rock straight down into turquoise glacial water.

the long game

Everything drawn to scale. Filled is summited, striped is attempted, dotted is next.

next season

Mount Rainier · 14,411 ft
Disappointment Cleaver, via Camp Muir. The big one for next summer.
Mount Baker · 10,781 ft
Glaciated, and still steaming from Sherman Crater.
North Cascades
Whatever else the weather and the calendar allow.

Court

Pickleball started with tennis. I played all through high school and captained the team my junior and senior years, and we won the district tournament three years running.

Now it's pickleball with friends: a smaller court, faster hands, a lot more trash talk.

Track

I love racing and fast cars. Formula 1 is engineering at the limit: cars built to the thousandth, strategy decided in a few seconds over the radio. It's the same instinct that makes me care about a chart running at 240Hz. My driver is Lando.
