Hi. I’m Aaron Grando, a web developer and designer in Brooklyn, NY.
I live with my fiancée, two cats, and about a dozen plants. The cats and I are natives of Philadelphia. Everyone else came from New York, as best as I can tell. I miss hoagies.
I’m interested in technology as entertainment, the new aesthetic, and reducing the burden that over-anxious technology has placed on our lives.
By day, I assume the role of Tech Lead at RTO+P. That means I help strategize, build, and maintain the dev team, and the apps built by the team.
In 2012, I created What Say Co. and a line of @Horse_ebooks-inspired tee-shirts. In 2014 I was quoted in the New Yorker saying something about long cons.
I’m keeping a blog on this site. I tend to write about the effect of technology on our lives. I’ve picked out a few of my favorite posts, below. Please enjoy reading them. You can see all my posts here.
