Hi, I’m Rook. I’m a 30-something nerdy #trans vixen.

I’ve been doing #WebDevelopment, #programming, and #database stuff since I was a kit, and I'm still loving it.

Currently, I am recovering from #AutisticBurnout and dealing with multiple #ChronicIllnesses.

Previously, I worked with complex #automation and #robotics systems in #HealthCare, doing a mix of #UserSupport, #SystemAdmin, and #DataAnalysis.

At home, I’m constantly tinkering with #SmartHome projects using #HomeAssistant, building my own #electronics, and battling my #3DPrinting hardware.

I also enjoy running around as a big, silly #fox in the #Furry fandom. #Fursuiter

I’m #ActuallyAutistic, #AuDHD, and #ADHD. I’m a proud #transgender member of the #LGBTQIA #queer community,
