👋🏻 I'm Trevor Tarakjian, welcome to my little corner of the internet.

productnook is a haven for those who can't seem to resist the seemingly irresistible pull of trying to make their lives a little easier. While I know of and understand the many pitfalls of "productivity culture", I can't help myself from diving in– though these days I'd like to think I'm a little more self-aware.

Outside of productnook, I work as a Product Lead where I cater mostly to data products.

When I have the time, I enjoy the following money pits:

📖 Reading the odd Fantasy novel, and inevitably find myself enraptured by series I know that in the back of my mind I may never finish.

🤖 Building Gunpla, naturally.

🎮 Playing through my horrendous backlog of video games. JRPGs are my staple.

My content mantra is "Simple usecases. Little Friction". As such, I try not to get too into the weeds as I find diving too deep drives unnecessary complexity. Hopefully you see the benefit as well. If you do, I always appreciate a follow!

You can find me on Mastodon @productnook@fosstodon.org and am always readily available for chat!

As always, thanks for reading 🙇🏻
